I think it would be helpful if the reputation of a user would not be shown next to the name. Showing the reputation numbers seems to have a herd mentality attached to it with hordes of people upvoting articles blindly. A lot of votes go to high rep users while something seems their posts are nothing but showing 3 graps of one coin together with a boilerplate footer message, and that multiple times a day. Such posts take away votes from minnows who try to deliver genuine and original content, but get no attention for their hard work.

I don't mind people receiving dividend for gaining a high rep but the herd 'upvoting' behaviour annoys me. It is not about the content anymore but upvoting because of some other reason (perhaps the idea that they gain more from upvoting posts that already have 50+ votes?). If that somehow could be investigated, that would be great.
