Ancient-Red-Dragon: "Highest rep'd user" would be a synonym for "least frequently truth-telling user."
For example, none of them would have dared to make any posts about how GOG lied to the public about "many messages from gamers" in the Devotion debacle.
Because if they did tell that much truth, then they would have lost massive amounts of rep.
Ditto for any other controversial issue. They certainly never would have raised a peep about GOG customers getting treated like second-class citizens via being given Achievement-less games whereas the same games on Steam have them, or else they would have been likewise downrepped to all Hell for having told that much truth and took a stand for great justice.
On the contrary: they might have even unjustly "earned" massive amount of reps for
defending the evil acts of devs treating GOG customers like second-class citizens by leaving out Achievements, as such diabolical posts are usually "High Rated."
Ergo, "highest rep'd user" is badge of shame, not honor. It means the user would only ever say non-controversial things, which inevitably also means that they would have
refrained from telling the truth and standing up for what is good & noble.
There are whole threads, some running into triple digits of pages, full of high rated posts that harshly criticise GOG. And I assure you, no one cares about rep here, certainly not so much that they'd refrain from saying something for fear of downvotes. The highest rated users are usually the ones who have been here the longest and are most active and those people know full well how broken the rep system is and they have a real reputation on the forum, not some silly points. You're just salty because you tend to get downvoted for acting like jerk, which you're doing right now again - insulting people, some well respected community members, for no reason.

Here, have a thread demanding GOG release devotion, full of high rated posts, many from users with four digit rep.
