Psssh...you all know it's a secret code that reveals a hidden rumor about an upcoming Apple product that will exist in tablet form, record and display movies, do wireless portable video conferencing, eat babies, compete with MS Office, Get 25 hours of battery life, anger MR members with its non-consumer-swappable battery, be insanely bright and frustratingly glossy, look really great against your new old-person blue jeans and black turtleneck, come out six months later in a form factor 30% smaller with more capacity, higher resolution, and a click wheel, and respond differently if you touch it with one finger or with two. And which will clearly signal the imminent demise of Apple.
I'm only guessing here but this reputation bollocks must have something to do with Switzermac buying the site from Arn.
mkrishnan's definitely onto something. 
Usually when arn plays with the reputations they come down after a while. Also, as Onizuka said, this reputation is attached to our 'tars, implying someone modified our 'tars.

Hot damn, I'd take that thing on the el to get rid of the annoying babies in the morning.
I was about to ask what was going on with my 'tar, but it looks like I'm not alone. Anyone worked out what these numbers mean yet? Is it based on post count per day or something? Maybe ratio of useful to "spam" posts?
Yeah, looking at it mad jew has a lower rep than me. Must be something to do with spam

Interesting concept, I think that you may indeed be onto something as mad jew has already stated.
Your intelligence level is far beyond me mkrishnan for trying to figure this out.
If anyone thinks the reputation number is related to being a contributor to the site.. well it can't be true because I'm a demi-god and I don't have a reputation
And to those who think it's not a dynamic number because it's part of the avatar - think again. PHP code can generate images on the fly easily. So my theory is Arn's playing with a possible new feature on select accounts.
