This would only be a good idea if getting a negative response penalized you more than just lowering your rep.
Personally I think it's a good idea. Before, the only way to gauge a member was to be familiar with their posts or look at the number of their posts. Now, their reputation represents the quality of their posts and ideas. I think that this will eventually be a good way to recognize the "upstanding citizens" of CD. Now CD can become a closer and more personal place where you get knocked down for a dumb idea and praised for a stroke of genius, almost like a true family.
