My feeble mortal brain, does not compute this. In a nutshell, I've spent 10+ years gaining my rep. I don't really give a shit about it. But some dude shows up and gets like a bajillion points. I don't really care, but something about me does, and I'd like to explore it further.
What do you mean "is legitimate". It's fake internet points, ultimately. But I'll play. Please define your terms of "legiftimacy", as you see them. It might be my problem because I view all newcomers as equals (UNLIKE SOME POSSIBLE TYRANTS), and think the concept of "tenure" and rep based off of it as rather, well, unfair. If it's going to b that skewed, why even have the system at all? Nostalgia?
Could we (you) possibly reformat the system, or come up with something else? Not tryin' 2 King Robert u here bro but damn, you guys and your complex algorithms. Can't we just institute a simple, start-from-scratch talley system? Maybe a "quality of post" 1-5 variable option or just basing merit on post count and longevity?
Ultimately,
, jsin, that noob has 4000 rep posts for a pretty average first post (no offense bud).

A message you would prefer to deliver in a "neutral" rep would be better used as a reply to the thread.
