Oh sorry.

I'm hungry.

You can neg me for that.

Considering the potential negatives, of the positive side, it becomes a backslapping/oneupmanship tool.  It creates cliques and self-importance. A personal thanks, in a thread or via pm, is enough. No need to keep score.

Yes that can be true, that became a big problem on Atari Age. But their rep system is not anonymous like ours, you can see exactly who leaves who rep there and that causes big problems.

This is more of a thanks for posting that but if it causes hassle it will be removed immediately.

I can see how it would cause problems on other (lesser) forums, but I think everyone here is mature enough to not take it too seriously.

I see all sides, and agree with the various sentiments.  However, RVG is a rather nice place and well police, so I say, let's give it a chance.  If it gets abused, or corrupted into something else, I'm sure it'll be taken out directly.

If it doesn't get abused, I see value in having it.
