Kinda hoping we don’t, honestly. I’d be fine if they were backend only, or just gone completely.
As useful as the paid blue check marks in Twitter.
I hope kbin will completely get rid of it.
Never.
It's nothing but a popularity contest. We don't need that here.
I'm fine with keeping them soley as an indicator that I'm contibuting in a positive way to the community.
I also use it to decide on how much effort I'll put into discussions with other users. If a user I'm talking with has a consistently low or negative reputation then they are more likely a troll or combatative person who is really not worth wasting your time in engaging with in detail.
