Well, you can rep a person back for repping you.
It's the polite thing to do.
You don't need a reason to rep someone.

If you're helping someone just for rep then that's dumb. l:

Yeah, this is how I feel about it ^^ and thus a rep-return button would be nice...

Who said they were doing that? x3 I dont think anyone does that.. it's not like rep does anything really meaningful (imo) Just think it's a nice thank-you

Meh. It would be nice to have a return rep button. Not only because it's polite but you might have a reason for repping them back anyhow. A lot of the people I've gotten rep from are nice and deserve rap back, soo.. I understand where she's coming from.

You should rep someone because you like what they post, not because they repped you.
I
used to only give out rep when other people repped me...

While I don't do this (at least, not Only this), I do understand entirely why someone would. And there's nothing wrong with it, all the more reason a rep-return button or something would be helpful :>

If this happened, the ones with rep would just get more rep, someone with high rep gives more rep, someone with high rep is liked, someone reps that person, they rep them back, they rep them back for reping them back.....If someone with no posts reps you, you shouldnt really rep them back, you rep someone for doing something on the forum, not for liking something that you did...That would be like buying followers, rep me and Ill rep you!

The purpose of rep is for people browsing the forum to see how helpful people are. People can go around doing whatever they want with rep but it was designed to be given for particular posts depending on your opinion of that post. So a rep back button would kind of defeat that purpose. If politeness is the issue people can just PM thanks to each other.

Okay, this makes sense :)
