Came here with my gun and megaphone.This article gets it
https://www.theawl.com/2018/01/the-m...ybuilding-com/Unlike on 4chan, where all posts are anonymous and ephemeral, or on Reddit, where the grand sum of a user’s upvotes has little value, Bodybuilding.com members’ reputation points, or “reps,” mediate and deeply influence community interactions. While reps are similar to ******** likes—weighted such that getting either “repped” or “negged” by a user with hundreds of thousands of reps will drastically affect your own rep count—they function as the Misc.’s de facto currency. Your rep count is displayed next to your every post. It’s like your bank account balance flashing on your forehead whenever you speak.
Bullying by those with power (high-rep Miscers) and obsequiousness by those without it (low-rep Miscers) is rampant. Getting negged by a high-rep Miscer means potentially becoming a “red,” a user with negative reputation points, displayed beneath your username as a gradated red bar as jarring as a stop sign. If you’re a red, you’re a second-class citizen. Your posts might as well come with a disclosure: “I’m a worthless idiot. Please listen to absolutely nothing I say.”
The opinions and caprices of high-rep “green” Miscers, then, dictate the forum’s personality. Any Miscer brave enough to post contrarian ideas—including, and especially, those that are liberal and feminist—is often negged into oblivion. Bad joke misses the mark? Negged. Sincere comment comes off as sarcastic? Negged. The Misc. is an echo chamber in which “greens” are given a megaphone and a gun.

reps matter, there is no question about it. if you think you are going to get big or strong just doing heavy singles ive got bad news for you son. You also cant get away with only high rep work. go ahead and try it if you dont believe me. do 20 sets of 20 on bench every day. with 115 or whatever poverty weight you throw up. youll get nowhere fast my friend. Reps matter and so do sets the number of and the frequency of playing important rolls in growth and recovery. different muscle groups are going to need different rep ranges as well. but dont think that means that you cant vary your reps, in fact, i recommend it. some guys like high reps for one workout and low for another. Some will do a combo in a single work out, say a set of 10 then 8 then 5 then 3 then 1. its all about the results your trying to achieve, but dont neglect, do the rep.
Because reps matter.
