Negative rep

Could this be re-introduced? I see some bad advice going on out there, maybe neg rep is the way forward

I see a lot of WRONG advise from newbies that have only posted a few times and never grown a tomato.
I see experienced SOIL growers giving Hydro advise and visa versa too.
New folks have to just consider the source.

I've wondered on the REP screen, why they have that little dot there but you can not delete the little dot. You can give good rep, but not bad rep????

I guess the only way to go is up fellas, buyer beware!!! Not that neg rep is a bad idea I still pretty fresh but even I can spot alot of bad advice.

It used to be there, but abuse to the system put an end to it.

Maybe the neg reps should be overviewed by a moderator who looks at the issue at hand. Alot of work and we know that some of the mods can get into it pretty heavy, so what would stop them from destroying each others rep?

Alot of the bad advice I've seen was quickly pionted out by a someone with more knowledge. I say if someone gives bad advice bust there chops and piont out there stupidity.

I've seen many try to get a Moderator to intervene here and they couldn't find one. Basically alll they do is delete spam.

how do you rep people?

also what is this function for? i think the person with the highest rep at the end of the year should win some bud hahahaha

ok i found out how to rep. the scales in the top right corner of the post. what does it do??????

I wish the neg rep would be reinstalled. I also have seen lots of very bad advice given. The mods are too busy to investigate every thread involving bad advice. Bad advice can lead newbies down a road to diaster. If the mods are worried about abuse then that is a subject they need to work out. But the way it is now isn't working at all.

yes i say bring in neg rep. rep system on rollitup really makes no sense..

I think a useful idea would be to have the feature turned on, that would allow automatic logging on who actually left the rep.

It is obvious that positive rep is a joke. Either do away with it completely or revamp it so it really does mean something.

every other thread was who de repped me!

lol please not again

If it does come back it needs to be moderated. or else every guy ya piss of can de-rep you, and if it happens enough, all the times you've helped people will be for naught.

Who said rep points mean anything? Rep or no rep wont stop arguing and wont stop bad advice.

People have to think for themselves...looking at a rep bar doesnt tell you much now....adding de-rep wont tell you much later on either.

Speaking of Negative Rep, where's Rob butts and Babygrow at lately?
