For a while now I have been using Intense Debate to help me manage my comments and also reply back to them faster. I am a very veyr happy user, although it was a bit unstable at the start - in terms of importing and exporting comments. Now I can safely say that the it’s working like a charm. Why do I love it even more is because I get to reply back to my friends via email instead of having to go straight to blog and reply via there.
On Intense Debate there is this little thing at the side of your profile picture icon that will show what is reputation like.
“Commenters on your blog are held accountable by fellow readers with our voting and reputation mechanism”
“Gain authority through a reputation system that follows you”
Since they have the reputation/ comment voting (please allow me to be happy and narcissistic for a while :P ) I was quite delighted to see my reputation points go up. Reason being cause I’ve been trying to figure out how to make it go up. Seeing it just at 0p was quite .. well.. sad 
Came to a point i usually just flick my eyes over from the point system and can’t be bothered with it. Till i actually saw a wonderful green on it and this is what I saw..
To be honest.. i still don’t quite get how it went up.. So if anyone could be so kinds as to explain.. Much obliged
