If you merge 2 accounts an a person has been the recipient of reputations from the same person on both accounts the merged users has 2 repuations from the same person.
I believe this was reported as fixed in 1.4.4 but bug still exists. I am not sure how mybb wants to correct the issue.
I think this may just be the way it is. Browsing through the source of 1.4.5, I don't see anything that removes double reputations by a specific user. The problem is that you can only remove one reputation. So if you had a negative on the destination and a positive on the source, it would only show the negative one. It wouldn't be a fair system if we did that.
I think he wants something that merges the reputations together? Example: One rating is +1, the other one is -2, so the comments would be merged, and the rating would then become -1?

Actually, I believe he means, if users
A and
B both receive +1 rep from user
C, then you merge users
A and
B, the merged user will have two reps of +1 from
C.
No I know what the problem is, I was just thinking of a way they could be merged into one rating.
As the above suggested, merging the reputations sounds plausible. However, another solution would be deleting duplicate reputation points from user C of who gave user A and B an equivalent.
supposed to be all details of each user will be.. merged too?

Yeah..delete the older reputation since reps can be updated. The more recent one should be kept. I think that's a good solution.
I like labrocca's solution (right above)
