Whenever I receive a rep, I notice the movements in the rep points. I became curious as to how many rep points I can dish out myself. So I wondered if anyone would help me find out. A volunteer can post his/her current rep points total, either by writing it in or by way of a screenshot. When I see this, I will immediately goodrep you (unless you're one of the people I repped this weekend, the system prevents me from repeating reps so soon) and afterwards you can post your new total.
All you need to cancel him out is one goodrep from a "maximummer" such as Lopez or Hewitt =Legend. Considering even I'm more than halfway there already, there's bound to be a lot of maximummers around.
what does the maximum rep value even mean, exactly - receiving the maximum amount of points from others' good reps, or to do with giving out reps myself? does the total draw from a particular period of time or everything since the MTF join date....?

Your rep points has nothing directly to do with what you give, only what you receive (indirectly giving helps, if you get reps in return, since then the people giving to you will have more to give).
The total undoubtedly draws from the MTF join date. Back when the system was started, I doubt anyone thought about maximum values. In fact, I know from asking a veteran that back then the dots were even in play - not as now, when most newcomers go straight from one to ten green dots on their first rep. But it turned out that after a few years points accumulated and became big numbers indeed.
Unfortunately I wasn't online when you posted, there is a risk you have been repped by others in the meantime, but I have now repped you and your total ought to increase by 12933767 or 12933768 points if our theory holds.
A very interesting development. I just received a badrep from someone who's been around a long time. I lost 10737425 points. Calculating backwards, this leaves very strong circumstantial evidence that a badrep is not
-1%, but actually -0,5%. That corresponds with this poster's total being maximum. It would be an odd coincidence if his points were exactly half of maximum.
