I think that reputation and moderation in general is useful. It helps avoiding that differences in opinion turn into bad arguments and subsequent hard feelings. I definitely don't want to see this forum going the 606 way ...
But then reps - positive or negative - should always be "signed", and authors invited to give an short explanation/comment, especially when negative. My personal line of conduct would be to be liberal with positive reps, in particular when contributions are well to the point, useful or funny. Negative rep would only be on the agenda if a post was totally inappropriate, insulting or really nasty ... and I definitely would sign it and send a private mail to the author to explain my position.
Being all different persons we have to expect and accept that some of us will disagree, and stand their ground.
I have to agree on this one keeping the feature with a few minor adjustments like Monique pointed out
- Signing is a good start.
- A brief explanation of why positive or negative.
- I don't think a negative rep being approved by Mods or Admins is a very practical thing tho but once signed, it's always good ground for an argument with the repping party as well as a Mod or an Admin should one find it unfair. Otherwise, it will be too much hassle & headache for Mods & Admins.
Monique, I quoted your post coz I liked it & my 3rd point here was the suggestion of snookersfun I guess. It makes a lot of sense but in my humble opinion is not very practical, but a great thread all in all
The feature I like most on this board is the ignore list where you can obliterate saft idiots like chassmmi. Next best thing to putting a fist in the pratts face.

This quite possibly qualifies as the rudest thing I have ever read on any forum I have ever been on. Way out of line in my book, Wity.
Marcel Proust had an haddock! If you're calling the author of 'A la recherche du temps perdu' a looney, I shall have to ask you to step outside!

You say that as if you've never made a sarcastic remark about someone else's opinion, in fact the level of bitterness in your posts seems to rise by the day. When it's directed at other members you are out of line and I'm not going to tolerate it, take a week to cool off.
