Will -rep ever come back?

[iceybunneh]

Removal of negative rep is actually kind of a good idea. If this place is supposed to be a place for support, how would you be giving support by insulting someone? Even if their rep was legit and they were LQ or otherwise troublesome, it disrupts the vibe. Also, a lot of people abuse -rep on other sites and I tend to be more cautious when dealing with someone who can -rep just for saying you like something they don't. On a support forum like this, you shouldn't have to worry about stepping on anyone's toes out of fear of them giving you a nice red reputation with a nasty comment :/
