User rating calculated via reputation points/post count
With the rep system currently, new members are lost in the sea of reputation totals from senior members, and its impossible to determine if they are low rep for any reason..it undermines the whole rep system because it's ambiguous.
Why not have a rep display that determines your average rep per post...this way a new member can get in on the game and get noticed as a substantial contributor immediately.
These ratio's are reached by:Reputation/posts

As you can see clearly member 3 is on course to being the most reputable of the bunch, whereas without the average displayed, he would go virtually un-noticed.
