Delete the *minus* scale. Make it have only the pluses.

I know it's complicated to implement but I think that would be better. That would help people not make the same mistake again too. Figunaye wrote: Delete the *minus* scale.

Yeah, then we can both have special permanent reps... Makes sense to me...

The previous two posts are perfect examples to why rep means nothing and should be removed, and why people who instantly judge other people solely by their rep are idiots.
I think we should replace rep with an objective standard that can't be influenced by other people. What about post count? I'd think it's ok to assume if someone has a high post count and they haven't been banned yet, they contribute to the forum.
Or how about time spent on forum? I'm not a moderator or an administrator, so it's not my problem; but I'm certain the intelligent people responsible for maintaining this forum can come up with a better, meaningful standard.

I think rep should be attached to posts, but the total +/- rep of all of them combined is the users rep.
Like if someone gave me +rep for this post (idk why they'd do that, but just as an example) it would show this post as having +1rep and me as having +6rep

You need to change your formula Nagisa, I just noticed a big flaw in it. If someone gives his + reputation to users who never or rarely will give reputation points then reputation points will be lost in general.
What you need to do is apply the rule only to negative reputation points. One cannot give any more negative reputation points after he runs out of points. This idea isn't flawless either but it should stop flamers who give constant negative rep and give people like me the ability to give reputation again.

That's your fault... You demanded that everyone give you -rep. What do you expect?

Remove it
That seems to be the majority of people's posts and I agree with it.

I agree with Alyxx. If you're going to keep it, make people give decent reasons, at least for -rep.

You guys do know there's a popup box that asks why you gave or took reputation from someone, right? Just make it manditory.
Besides, I like the rep system. It's cool, but only when used appropriately. People like Blue and Rarity deserve their high reps. Flyingamerboy deserves his negative rep. The rep system is usually somewhat accurate except for with Michael Archer and BTG, but those are the only examples I can think of.
