you will NEVER solve the problem here, UNLESS you proportionately cut the rep...periodically.
cutting the points is cutting the points, BIG DEAL. At least our free speech is not cut, you can still neg rep who ya like and it won't hurt them....
by doing it this way, waiting the 48 hours, you solve nothing in the order of making it impossible for someone to get out of the hole on rep points.
Negative rep is suppose to be given if you vehemently disagree with a poster, NOT BECAUSE you want to blow them out of the water with your boo coos of negative rep points.
Yes, I know. This new system allows for negs but creates a boundary. This negging people 2 times a day is not correct. Especially if you have a ton of rep.
reducing the points is a much better solution, whether by reducing all of our points proportionately or reducing the neg rep point percentage to 90% vs 50%...
I don't think usmb wants to limit speech and limiting the neg reps with comment to a 48 hour period, would do that imo....
but reducing everyone's rep points by an equal percentage, to the point where the long timers or the seasoned rep point accumulator doesn't have enough rep to be able to solely blow to smithereens some other members rep enough that this other member can never get out of the hole or catch up, is just.
we need a NOTHANKS key too
