The funny thing i noticed is most of people who mentioned about rep system was for critisizing it and when ppl complain about it usually the admin answer is "hey ignore if bother you". So we have a feature who bothers most of the community but instead being removed or put into discussion he is simply kept cos please some admins who obviously have higher than average reputation.
I keep from posting on most forums and some i try to not post at all, since i was neg-repped for saying "welcome" o a forum where ppl thinks only a few old posted can say anything in there.
My point of view is admins dont care about having this forums for the community and created this system to keep new users from using it. Many can disagreee with me but experience tells me different.
If you want this forum only for you closed club, keep it. feel free to neg rep anonimously me for expessing my oppinion too.
