Before I decide on anything, I would like everyone's input on how (un)important the rep points are to you. So please vote, and if you have any other input, go ahead and say it.
Thanks!
P.s.: Keep in mind that the outdated software does not have anything to do with down times. In fact, regular members will probably not see many differences at all. The biggest difference will be the lack of rep points.
Also, remember the theory behind the system. It's actually quite an important part of the forum, in my opinion.
