Poll: Eliminate User ID numbers?

It doesn't take a Jerry Springer diary to know that User ID numbers play a significant role here.  

What's up for debate is how constructive it is to have these numbers, and if the good outweighs the bad.

The good being it's fun and important to recognize the longstanding members of this community.

The bad being an occasional uprising of accusations of elitism and smarminess (justified or not).

So let's have a poll ...

I'm voting that we recommend to Kos that we not display User ID numbers, primarily because I think reputations should be earned less with numbers and more with words.
