We could still say "that was a great post" and not say "that was a lousy post". I know that similar topics have arised in the past, but I think now is the time to rethink it given the increase in conflicts.

My only advice...ignore the dots. They are just that, dots, dots to relate to an irrelevant number that means nothing in your everyday life. If someone doesn't like your post and gives you a red dot, send them a PM back and talk to them about it.
Yes there have been many discussions on the subject of reputation on these forums and really all you can get out of them is "They're just dots"
