    Nixing

    Just when I was going to use negative reputation for the first time since my first login, it has been disabled...

    With that link, I would expect your reputation to sink like a stone as people "test" your theory by giving you -ve reps. I almost did. It appeared to work fine, though I never actually committed it.

    I suppose this is more non-powerposter discrimination then.

    Re: Nixing

    Really? I do seem to remember something about people under 20 posts not being able to post a -ve, or at least it didn't matter, but not for people with 900 posts.

    Of course, it might have changed, and I really don't care enough to look it up, as the pot is on to boil, and the noodles are going in presently.

    I think people who have under 20 posts who give reps don't count, whether it's +ve or -ve. But don't rely on me, I've stopped caring about reputation about 6 months ago.

    No, it's just the incredible VBForums post analysis determining whether or not you should have the incredible privilage of the NegRep button.

    Clearly, VBForums considers you unworthy.

    Users with under 2048 posts can no longer give negative ratings due to too many incidents where it was used inappropriately or accidentally.

    Isn't 2048 a little harsh??

    Sounds like it should be one above what you have, and pegged to that number.
