Nu-Mou Knight Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 They help when positive reps are done at the same time, and show a general disapproval otherwise. Sometimes, you just need something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Welche Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 All they do is encourage minimodding. What kind of post deserves a neg rep rather then being reported? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hexcalibrate Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 i think they should make it so that whenever someone negs another person, for karma their own rep count decreases instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limited Edition KING Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 If we get rid of neg reps then we get rid of the whole rep system. They've already lost all meaning they had anyways. -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time Psyduck Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 All they do is encourage minimodding. What kind of post deserves a neg rep rather then being reported? Negative reps are supposed to show disagreement with a valid comment. If the comment breaks forum rules, you report it; if it doesn't, and is merely stupid or factually incorrect, you neg it. For example: [insert User] is a paedophile. would be reported, whereas: Two-Pronged Attack is the best card ever. would be negged. Anyone spamming negs against one person is probably doing less actual harm than if they were sending potentially insulting or offensive messages instead, and isn't there a quota on neg reps to limit that anyway? I don't have a view one way or the other on reps as a whole. I basically ignore them, and every other forum I've been on has done fine without them, but then I don't "like" or "dislike" youtube videos or anything like that much, so other people may want the rep system (not those in this thread, obviously, but other people). However, if you keep the positive, there should be a negative as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Welche Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 Two-Pronged attack being the best card is a personal opinion an doesn't deserve a neg rep. Your a total douche for thinking it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scyire Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 pffff negative reputation isn't that bad to be completely removed. Reps are completely pointless anyways, so I doubt it'll get changed at all. If you don't like negs and prefer to report a person, then do so.

Time Psyduck Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Two-Pronged attack being the best card is a personal opinion an doesn't deserve a neg rep. Your a total douche for thinking it does. I don't think that particular comment should or shouldn't be negged. It was simply an example of something that doesn't break the forum rules, and thus shouldn't be reported, but was dumb. If someone simply is wrong or stupid, that's ok. If they're continuously very stupid, and don't listen to anyone who simply disagrees with their opinion, then they'd be deserving of the neg. You report things that break the rules. You neg something that doesn't break any rules but makes you go "What planet is this person on?" You don't have to neg if you don't want to, and you'd likely correct them as well, but it gives you another option to express how bad you think a comment was. At least the old rep system needed a reason. This is just pointless. (the irony that reps give you 100 points) I agree that having to give reasons was better, since it made each rep mean something. Now it's basically just another pointless score like post counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
