Reputation - Proof of Transaction

[TellTale]

Obviously the system is misused and many of us who actually have a good reputation are left in the dust because of others finding alternate means of gaining reputation.

Reputation should not be based on opinion, I think that's horrible.

Reputation should only be given for a real transaction or trade, and proof be required in a link/description box. I had (was removed recently) a permanent negative reputation on my profile for "trashing threads" while if it really was an issue a moderator could have handled it, instead because a user I had no dealings with did not like what I had to say on his thread (which by making a public thread subjected himself to the criticism of anyone who may view) gave me a negative reputation.

In addition, all banned users should have reputation they gave, if negative, removed.

As everything else is stated on the other posts, I just want to add;
Why would the banned user's reputation be removed if it's negative, why not positive/neutral as well? Banned users opinions count as well, whether it is negative or positive.

It is possible a banned user would negative rep users in spite, fair point nonetheless.

Reputation is (and always will) be for opinions and trades, that's not up for negotiation. The reasoning for this has been explained a dozen times in the past.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion.
