"You are not allowed to give reputation to this user"

[Ixthos Luke/Luke]

This message pops up very often lately when I give someone reputation - and I say when I give someone reputation because, despite what the message says, I am still able to do so. Can anyone explain what is happening?

I was getting the same thing, not very recently but a while ago. I have no idea why

Assuming it's not the usual rep limit or someone in the Members2 group, it's probably the admins doing site work.

Don't worry about this. It is a special group that has other restrictions that is given out in a few specific instances.
