If posts >= 100 then stack that list above the
if posts < 100 lay that list below
so basically the person with the lowest rep over 100 posts is above the highest rep'd person with fewer than 100 posts. This could create more posts from people new to CD, and it ACCURATLY groups the serious member. heck even if I had 3000 posts my rep would be all green.. but that's not accurate- bc there are other members that give amazing help every day LIKE KARTHIK!!
so I think this should be looked at.
I think the people who are on here every day and give out the most useful advice are already at the top of the list.

The only thing this would help would be to move up people like Jason Morrella for example, who post nothing but insightful material, but with far less frequency than others, thus leaving him farther from the top.

You provide Karthik as an example. He has the 5th highest rep, so clearly rep has worked in his case.
