Why keep it when it makes a lot of people miserable?

As evidenced by the number of times people ask me to remove, edit, and correct neg rep.

There's something deeply insightful about that comment that can be generalised to most people and relationships.

Bedwetters.

I'm not saying there might be a better system for deciding good and bad sellers (I doubt that was the original point, but when it became only visable in sale threads that is what it became important for)...

As a system for marking posts that you appreciate or dislike it works and should stay. I would have a separate system for the classifieds that only relates to sales/buying.

Also if I was you I'd tell anyone who asks for nergs removed to get bent!
