Not all, I have a negative, and IMHO, its for a stupid reason, even talking properly with the 'person' doesn't work.

Not trying to convince you, but as a technical note: don't put the link when you're viewing your own reps. :P

Edit: I was away and didn't see NiteMare's post.



Anyway, I've always been one of those who suggested to remove the system when the topic was brought up. And I still hold this opinion.

RE: Reputation System Abuse
I think the reputation system is very good at the moment.

When elite members were created, it gave recognition to people who helped out on the forums a lot, however, the criteria to become elite was very hard, and only the most dedicated members became a elites.

I think that the reputation system is good because it gives some recognition to people who have worked hard on the forum.

There is a bit of abuse with the reputation system, why not put guidelines below the rate user form about what is acceptable and what isn't in terms of rep giving.
