Of course, it's the comments that go with the rep that can be the most helpful. That's why neutral reps are popular--a couple lines about "Hey, you're new, so you might not know that it's generally considered a bad idea to start a mentor-built debate" could work at least as well as a red rep with "You idiot, why'd you bring that up!???!!!" |
I find it weird that I get neutral rep with the message "thanks!" or "i really like that!" as if people are scared to give out positive rep. Maybe they don't click on "approve" though...
