Because the more usergroups there are, the more confusing and hard to control it becomes. Trust me, I had like 8 additional usergroups on an older board, only for promotions. Now, if I want to change one basic permission for one group, I have to change it for all others, since they are all the same except forum access or whatever it is... With this hack, you do not need to promote users for reputation, you just edit a forum

No hassle.

Bottom Line: IMHO, the promotions system was created for nothing, because it is better to create hack that would define the promoted setting rather than do it with usergroups.
