1500 to me sounds like a reasonable place to get to. It's an elite level for a user to achieve. And again, the more one uses the system, the higher your rep level power is. We've limited the Admin/Mod level, but as you can see by 7odd and Osiris they use the rep system often and without much hesitation (believe me..I know. I'm the one who checks the comments weekly). Their rep power is very high. I'd love nothing more than to have bunches of people who can hit that mark.
One of the reasons it seems like only mods are going to hit that mark is simple: Mods/admins tend to be very active members, post very insightful remarks, or create awesome maps of zombie attacks (Cabbage Patch is GOD).
But if you look at the list of the top 10 users in terms of experience excluding myself and Kc: 8 of the 10 are regular users (some with blogging or fan fic privileges but otherwise they'd be wearing white).
One more main reason I think 1500 would be a nice cut off: Look at someone like Deacon...He's been here for just over two months and already is around 600 rep points.
We can still definitely discuss the ceiling level if we go this way.
