Overall I like the rep system due to the fact that yes, it does show new members who are the people that really do know what they're talking about.

Then again, I feel it has been abused again me - specifically, it has been used as a tool to express the person's opinion rather than if they approve of the post. I feel like one person in particular (who is actually a moderator and should know better) uses the rep system repeatedly to express a grudge he has against me.


Use the boards to express your opinions, and use the rep system to reward or punish etiquette and intelligence.
Disagreeing with a person's views is no justification for damaging his reputation.
