The problem with this is immediately afterwards everyone who is well liked in the community will be back to 100 rep in a day.

Not necessarily. It took me a year to build up to 91 reputation, mind you, this was when Elite and Super Elite were around. That means users could add a subtract 3 reputation points and 4 depending on their user group. Now we're all in Legends, and there is only two legitimately upgraded users, we will get 1 point per user the reps us.
