I think that positive and negative rep should be taken away. Neutral rep should be the only rep you are able to give except for Mods and Admins.
In my opinion
1) It will decrease the rep4reps and spam posts/leeched tuts to get reps
2) Neutral reps combined with the anonymous reps (Anonymous Neutral Reps) will result in decreased flaming in the rep given out.
It also should be a requirement to post a link to the thread that the person receiving the rep has helped you/ (or in the case of a negative comment)spammed/scammed/etc. Or if it happened in a PM, post a VERY detailed explanation of why you are giving this rep.
