996 xS_DEADLY_Sx Alpha Tester 6,022 posts Report post #7 Posted February 3, 2013 Neg rep was a wonderful thing, it set the bad posts apart from the good ones. If a helpful poster starts getting neg repped, we have so many more positive reps than negs to hand out that the negs would be cancelled out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Board software provides a back office view of these activities, while invisible to the community, is easily tracked from an administraters dashboard. This issue has not escaped this board either, and I suspect why the staff disabled negative rep due to it being abused. tankwarhammer9000, on 03 February 2013 - 06:17 PM, said: Dont add negative rep again i could see people hating on some other forum user and telling his friends to -1 That personDeliberately Lowering his Rep.

1,451 MM2ss Alpha Tester 4,453 posts 535 battles Report post #22 Posted February 4, 2013 No it is 5-7-5, though strangely it is not actually by syllables, but sounds, which evidently means there is some sort of difference. The one I posted is a 5-7-5, the one I was referring to was a 5-8-5. So no, he didn't (5) But it was in fact very close (8) Cows eating fat sheep (5) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

83 sgtpepper500 Alpha Tester 598 posts 533 battles Report post #25 Posted February 4, 2013 There are pro's and con's to both. I for one would support reinstating negative rep, but it wouldn't just be like positive rep(# of uses). I am not sure how negative rep worked before, but what if they made it so you could only give out say 3 neg rep a day and 6 positive rep. Something like that could possible discourage negativity overload and also make it so others could easily cancel out any undeserved neg rep. just my two cents.
