    This has been suggested a good few times before and has always been shot down.
    It would be a good idea if used responsibly, but undoubtedly there'd be muppets who'd just use it excessively to try and piss people off.

    karma based systems are pretty much on the way out. negativity breeds contempt and flamewars, and admins everywhere are begining to learn of it. its hard to find any site that still uses a +/- system, theyre all moving over to the +only.

    The fans of a negative rep system usually don't realize they are sometimes turkeys voting for Christmas.
