Will -rep ever come back?

[JDBar]

Yeah, that thread really disappointed me when it was made. I don't think the intended outcome really came about though. I see nothing but people acting like children especially in the Off-topic section, because there's hardly/never a consequence of doing so. I think -rep was a reasonable way of deterring people from acting like idiots, because for some reason it mattered to them. Even then it's not always about immaturity. SF has had it's share of scammers and shady members in the past. If we were to have more, people would have a harder time recognizing these members due to the lack of -rep.
