RE: @snowflake's really interesting proposal - Turn whales into moderators and give dolphins all the voting power (TLDR Version)
Putting a value of vote next to a username would mean a lot more anyway! Get rid of the reputation score and put in the vote value - then it is all clear, surely?
Maybe to avert the embarassment of the whales, just give a rep score until a username's vote is worth $0.01. I know why you are reluctant to answer this but it is what transparency means. Don't cave in. The exponential curve needs to be understood by people other than just me!
It isn't that simple. The amount that your vote adds to the total is not a fixed amount. It changes as other voters vote on the post as well, and it also changes as other posts on the platform get upvoted/downvoted throughout the day.
