New users could still give rep.
But for getting auth access they would need to get >=10 Trusted rep.
Which only a group of members could deliver.
And would this mean we would have a second bar below the 'regular' reputation that shows Trusted Reputation? Meaning we could see regular rep and Trusted reputation?
This would make it very hard for the amount of members wanting to use the cracks to get 10 trusted rep as there is a huge difference between the amount of trusted and regular members.
Then again it could be said the crackers/reversers etc want something back for their work which doesn't always have to be money, maybe they just want to see the community grow/improve.
I have to say the idea is good but needs some slight improvements such as the amount of trusted rep required for auth access (?) due to the difference in amount of members.
+1 for the idea but needs some slight adjustments
