Rep points selection

It seems that most (all?) rep points are either given as 0, or as the total available amount. For instance, if I have 700 rep points and I want to rep Ax (not that that would ever happen, but still) then I would either give him 0 points, or 700 points. I would be very unlikely to rep him 351 points.

Therefore, I propose that the rep system be modified to have those two values (0,max) as easy to select. In the current selection, changing the default 0 points to the max requires precise mouse movements or frustrating keyboard skills. A simple 3-position radio box selection (Zero points || Arbutrary amount of points with dropdown box || Max points) would make life easier, would promote world peace, and would clean up the oceans.

Boo! I like my oceans full of crude!

Actually, I think it would be easier to just choose rep based on an interval. For instance, 100, 200, 300, etc; 200, 400, etc; or something like that. Maybe that is just me.

jzd agrees: It is not just you. Maybe even a smaller value like 10 for the times when you want to give neg rep.

I don't have much of a problem with the dropdown list, and I got one of the longest dropdowns :-) Zero always seems to be the default for me ...

Especially for one who admits to rarely ever dropping the box down all the way.
