    This might scale nicely - say 1 more vote per 2500 rep or something like that (starting at 20K). Commented Nov 11, 2010 at 22:52

    Hmmm, is it really that big of a deal? Commented Nov 12, 2010 at 0:33

    Another one that makes more work...but still on those occasions that I run out I always find another one I wished I'd saved up for... Commented Nov 12, 2010 at 2:30
  • I don't like this one, -1.. I think it's not really useful, especially considering the amount of reputation it requires. It would be a good privilege for something like 5k, though. Commented Nov 12, 2010 at 9:39

    You've got a chance of hitting 20k from upvotes on this post -- well planned, sir Commented Nov 12, 2010 at 11:49
  • On SF at least this doesn't mean much. I've run out of Flags a few times, but never gotten close on close votes. Commented Nov 12, 2010 at 20:22

    As the site grows, I find it easier and easier to run out of close votes, delete votes (now that this is rate limited), and spam flags every day. For some reason, I found myself doing more janitorial work once I crossed the 10k threshold. This is possibly because reputation was no longer that great of a motivator past this point, and / or I felt more invested in the site after participating for that long.

    I built a tool to help me revisit closed questions after the 2 day waiting period before deletion, and found that I really don't have enough delete votes per day to keep up with the stuff that truly deserves deletion. I would wield more delete votes responsibly. :) Commented Dec 13, 2010 at 7:41
