Curious if this will ever become a concept to help put a stop to spam/bots.

    That might be better, but I’d still worry about people rep farming (for lack of a better term). Any time you give people a score, title, or other personal metric, you run the risk of people posting to influence that metric rather than to post for the sake of contributing content.

    It’s possible the good such a system could do would outweigh the bad, but it will definitely always have elements of both.
