No text, but a visual code

A lot of people coming to this forum for the first time and seeing this ranking will avoid reading what someone like me with such a poor reputation is saying.

No, I don't think so.
If you had a negative reputation, then yes it might.
But I doubt anybody searches out only people with high reputation.
To be frank, there was a flurry of reputations being handed out a few years ago, and I don't think anybody has give any reputation at all for the last couple of years.
But let us not clog up your thread with these OT comments, feel free to make a new thread in the tech support forum if you have a suggestion or query on the functionality of the site.
