I just quickly read the stackoverflow, and it sounds like a really good concept. I especially like this idea...<blockquote>At the high end of this reputation spectrum there is little difference between users with high reputation and moderators. That is very much intentional. We don't run Stack Overflow. The community does.</blockquote>
Anyhow, one site that I occasionally visit (<a href="http://hotukdeals.com/">HotUKDeals</a>) has a reputation system that seems to work so you might want to take a look. Basically users can post deals that can be judged as 'hot' or 'cold' by other users, and users can get reputation points also (based on deals or comments). I guess there could be some analogy between deals and scripts if a similar system was used here. There are details on the temperature system <a href="http://hotukdeals.com/item/145906/newcomers-advice-on-hotukdeals-gene/showpost.php?p=1580413&postcount=6">here</a>, and the reputation system <a href="http://hotukdeals.com/item/145906/newcomers-advice-on-hotukdeals-gene/showpost.php?p=1580414&postcount=7">here</a>.
