 ''Reputation'' applies to [[agents]].
-Reputation is public. It can be construed from metadata about activity / behavior. It is information about an [[agent]]'s past activities that helps other [[agents]] make decisions about possible future relations, action or outcomes.
+Reputation is about how others see us in a socioeconomic environment.
-In a game theoretical approach, an [[affiliate]] will act predictably (which can also mean rationally, but not always), to increase his/her reward, and the worth of the entire network / community, which is in part transferred back to the same [[agent]] / player as reward. In other words, the reputation of an OVN [[affiliate]] is related to the probability that this [[affiliate]] respects the formal rules and norms that govern co-creation and transactions within the network, which, if the network is properly designed, should maximize reward for the [[affiliate]], which in turn aligns with what makes the network sustainable. If the economic model is well-designed, there should be very little or no conflict between individual interests and collective interests (see also [[tokenomics]] in the context of [[DAOs]]).
+On the one hand, reputation is about ''predictability'', as in trusting an [[agent]] (in context) to perform a specific (set of) tasks. [[Credentials]] are a dimension of reputation. Thus, reputation is essential for building predictable environments and socioeconomic processes.
-Reputation is also a form of [[wealth]] that individuals nurture in social contexts and organizations. It provides access to socioeconomic processes as a dimension of [[credentials]]. In that sense, it is a non-transferable type of [[wealth]], it belongs to one particular [[agent]]. When reputation is made explicit in a socioeconomic context as a condition to access ([[processes]], [[resources]]) people become conscious about it and model their behavior and personality to nurture their reputation, as expected within that environment. Therefore explicit reputation parameters is also used to model behavior.

If the [[economic model]] is well-designed, there should be very little or no conflict between individual interests and collective interests (see also [[tokenomics]] in the context of [[DAOs]]).
 Reputation can be aggregated over a network to provide a measure of network (organizational) quality, which is a network type of [[wealth]].

 Being sociable and collaborative can be seen as a subjective dimension of reputation, although some people can argue otherwise based on patterns of engagement extracted from digital traces of activity.

 Reputation factors are linked to the [[contribution accounting system]] and can play a part in the [[benefit redistribution algorithm]]. In other words, [[reputation]] can modulate someone's ability to benefit from the network. Thus, the reputation system provides a mechanism of continuous self exclusion. If someone gradually loses reputation to a point where the rewards become lower than what the individual can get somewhere else, this individual loses his/her incentives to stay with the network and might decide to quit.

 ==p2p infrastructure for reputation - ideas==
-The [[reputation]] of an [[affiliate]] describes HOW this [[affiliate]] contributes, or in what manner. The ''Reputation system'' interfaces with the [[individual profile]] and has write access. In reality, [[reputation]] of an [[affiliate]] lives in the heads of all other affiliates who have shared experiences together. There is no central platform for [[reputation]]. To verify the reputation of an [[affiliate]], one needs to query, or asks other affiliates. Reputation on a p2p platform should mimic that. Reputation parameters about every [[affiliate]] can live as data that belongs to every other [[affiliate]]. A search engine can be used to query all [[affiliates]] that have reputation data about another [[affiliate]], and present a reputation aggregate or summary. The [[affiliate]] should not be allowed to edit his own reputation data.

 Think of 'reputation' not only in terms of multiple measures, but multiple measures measured in different types of relationships. Just because my friend thinks that I'm lazy doesn't mean my boss thinks I'm lazy too. It's a different type of relationship, laziness features differently in them. My future boss doesn't care that my mom thinks I'm lazy. Her rating would contaminate that measure and should be kept separate. [[VDML]] supports this thinking.
