Selling power, a handful of buyer were not convince I am trustworthy;
4 nerges including two from a fucking Dolan memes put me down to James' level permanently.
I call bullshit...You were there cause of that link to mark all things read, which to be honest, was fucking aweful and i think your neg rep is something youve earned in bucket loads. You are paying for what you did.

No, the strength of the nergs varies from person to person.
I have 97 nergs , (27 of those is from that mark all read incident) and 870 positives, do your fucking math.

Mod, can you reset my rep approval please? all I can give is neutral reps currently.
That's how the system works.
You've given 13 nergs, none of which were related to classifieds but decrement other people's rep, and then when it happens to you, you protest.
Rep is based on a calculation, one so complex I can't work it out myself. But roughly your score is calculated by the rep you've received and given, and the rep others have given or taken from you, and this is multiplied by the general score of the other people.
You think that it's just my nerging you that has caused this, but you're wrong. My score starts higher than others, but some other people have earned so much score of their own that they now affect your score greatly too.
And every night, the scores of everyone are re-calculated.
Any manual reset would be wiped out the next night.
So instead, to adjust the score that is calculated I'd have to edit and manually remove from the audit trail various bits of neg rep until such a time that it managed to massage your score back to a positive number.
The facts:
edscoble, you've nerged 13 times, and you yourself have received 97 nergs.As far as I can tell, none of these relate to classifieds (the whole point of the rep system).
I also see that several of the people that have nerged you have a higher rep score than I do. I weight heavily, but others have earned much higher scores over time.
So what I'd need to do is to subjectively go through and delete rep left by a whole slew of people, to give you a score you desire.
That's not going to happen as then I'll have to start doing that for lots of people who dislike their score.
People get the site they want, and you've participated in giving nergs and trolling and you've been scored as such by your peers.
You'd like to now have that slate wiped clean, but therein is the better question... what's the point of having the system at all if it doesn't actually serve any benefit to the one area that it might be helpful: reputation management with regards to classifieds. And I'm not against the users of the site using the tools however they see fit, I find it interesting to watch new uses and needs appear from the evolution of how people interact. And it seems that people want the site to have just a general semi-private feedback and rep system and not one related to classifieds.
If it was purely my rep that had resulted in your neg score I'd oblige as I have in the past. But I never feel I have the right to start nuking the content of other people.
Perhaps you should make the kind of posts that earn positive rep and avoid the kind of posts that get you nerged?

Only because it drop overnight once you nerged me (reset, then drop again).
If the classified reputation system isn't part of the main forum - that would be fine.

Seriously, I add up to less than 5% of your score... wiganwill is the greatest portion of your neg score. You've been nerged since I nerged you, and if I delete mine you will still be nerged.

i will now have more rep power due to the lack of nerg given
Except with Velocio,. you get nerged right to the bottom, as some user have more power than other.
