Yeah, I seldom to never nerg because one of the other factors is "IsAdmin" and that is a stupid factor. If I nerg it has the effect of negating whatever someone's rep score is... so if they've acquired +30,000 rep points (which the top 10 posters on the forum probably have), then I destroy that in a single nerg.
Everyone else's effect is an amplifier of their current score. But it's not unusual for an established user to nerg a new member... the established user effectively subtracts 500 points, whilst the new member only started with 10 points... thus totally destroy the rep of any newish user.
