Members can claim to be an expert of some area (like 'PHP', 'Database' and possibly for fun with 'Bullshitting'), and let the rest members give score to or rate him by the way a rep is added according to how much expertise in the area this member demonstrates in his posts by helping others. So DP has a huge list of experts in all the related areas, be it development, marketing and so forth. This very much encourages all the members to contribute to this board and help others because by doing so they know they are rewared by fame and very possibly by future opportunities. The list is for all to see! It's not just some rep points that only show when other members see your posts. What'd you say?
Good idea but I thought thats what the itraders as seller are for? say the person is a coder, he/she will code for a lot and if he/she receives multiple positive feedbacks for the coding jobs that would convey the same IMO. But we could have an option where we could sort out itraders by the type of thread.
