I think you should get 10 reps to give out each day for every dollar you donate each month, so if you give 5 dollars a month, you can give 50 reps a day be they negative or positive, that seems fair, so if all you do is complain about why you don't donate then you don't get to vote.
I personally don't think that would be a good idea. Donations members make to the forums is because they have gotten some valuable content out of it, met helpful people, enjoy the hobby or simply want to see the forums and it's community prosper and stay active. Making donations required to give out rep would defeat the whole purpose of reputation, meaning only people who contribute to the forums in a financial means can give reputation out.
Some members don't donate but provide tons of valuable information to others. Donating shouldn't be a requirement but a nice gesture if you feel you have gotten valuable knowledge out of laserpointerforums.com
