RE: Members behaviour towards new people!
Common courtesy.
Two simple words that mean a whole lot of difference. If you would treat other people the way that you would want to be treated, the world would be a better place. And that works with reps too. Its usually the younger and inexperienced members that place importance upon reps, and it is in my opinion often the suckups or inexperienced members that flock to negrep a screwing up newb.
In my opinion, members screwing up is an item for mods and admin to deal with, not the members. Giving reps is only an indication, and in my opinion should not be used to teach member to behave.
I think that a good option for the repsystem, would be to limit the people that can give out reps. 100 posts is already a good deal, but it doesnīt tell you if anyone is sensible and in general a good member.. so I think the right to give reps should be earned, and should be taken away again when abused.
So in short, I think it is important that negreppers get taken away their ability to rep. Clearly they arenīt worthy of the privilege.
