Rating I can’t understand how someone can have a reputation for 229910 points ?? With all due respect to Denis, this is arithmetically impossible. He has only 9 times more models than me, for example, and the mismatch of the maximum number of points for the reputation of the models. What do you think?

My feelings have nothing to do with it. I say that the arithmetic of calculating reputation points confuses me. And here it’s not a matter of a separate artist
Did you read this: https://www.cgtrader.com/reputation and still find it confusing?

Reputation is a sum of total likes, comments (likes of such comments), sales etc. https://www.cgtrader.com/reputation
So, what a problem?
That is, the models themselves are not so important as the activity of the seller?

Its not impossible,
Note that the amount on each sale gets added to your reputation score. So if your models sells for 2 dollars you get 2 reputation points, on other hand if your model sell for 150 dollars you get 150 reputation points on a sale.
Also buying models gets you same amount in reps.
Dennis may also do CGtrader jobs and that gets jet again same amounts in points.
I don't see any irregularity here, looking at my own account its standing at 48000 reps having 70 models, Dennis has almost 800 models.
Just need lots of good priced models that sell.
I understood approximately. It is not clear how they manage to sell models at an insane price.

For example I got 90% of my reputation points (23K) in the Community ratings "game" (now it is broken).
But what is weird on fact that sellers with huge portfolio of premium quality have 100, 200K or more points?
It is simple math: if you have only 3$ products in your database then you cannot campare with them.
Use common sense: seller with 10 products priced 10$ is same like seller with 1 product priced 100$.
23k wow! I feel I know why it's not fixed yet =] ... btw looking at this page now I had noticed that exactly Denis is in first place there with 54k =D
Fine! What am I talking about. The quality of the model does not matter at all !!
ArchimedP.: quality matters but quality connected with CORRECT PRICE, originality, complexity etc.
Simple math again: seller with 500 complex products (cities or high detailed cars) each priced 120$ can sell 50 products monthly - so it means +5000 points every month or 60000 points every year.
Simple, everyone must understand it.
I do not consider other people's money and I brought Denis as an example
Did you mean that a seller with a reputation below 40K has almost no chance of selling?

@ArchimedProduction: To be honest: why should anyone buy the animals when he she can have a whole bundle of them on the reallusion - content store for less than 85 bucks ?
It is avaible here: https://www.reallusion.com/contentstore/promo/2010AnimalWorld/
Am usually very careful of accusing folks, but your animals (all types are also included in the bundle) look pretty much alike the ones provided there (didn't have a closer look since I have better things to do).
For the characters: every child can buy "Character Creator" with "Headshop plugin" and other plugins made by Reallusion and kitbash with the morphs and features and create characters on mass pretty easy.
Sorry, but that has not much to do with creating (especially modelling what cgtrader should be all about) something all on your own.

I mean that 40K+ reputation is not important - You will get 80% of royalty with 40000 and with 200000. My reputation is 6000 - but Buyer buy my models because they are good even my reputation is still low. Chances depends on price and quality not reputation! Your royalty depends on reputation!

This looks really odd and cgtrader staff should have a look at....

Just browsed through props inside iClone which I haven't used yet and figured out that default
"Dog Collie" and the default cat are these:
https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/animals/mammal/magic-dog
Original dog on pictures in official manual:
https://manual.reallusion.com/iClone_7/ENU/Content/iClone_7/Pro_7.4/11_Set/Prop/Editing_Props_in_3DXchange.htm
Original cat:
https://forum.reallusion.com/PrintTopic372844.aspx
That one is the jeep is already included in iClone:
https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/vehicle/other/tuareg-vw
Original:
https://www.reallusion.com/iclone/help/iclone5/PRO/11_Props/iProp/iProp_Interaction.htm
This user should also be checked (commenting archimed's "products":
https://www.cgtrader.com/jaizrulz
He tries to sell from original content derived iClone characters wearing default clothing (e.g. for the Heidi - Character) as FBX and OBJ export thinking he is smart and iClone users won't recognize.
Edit: Dog Collie and cat in "his" (Archimed) collection:
