Ya know....I think people are starting to get way too wrapped up in the whole rep system. Seems like everyone wants an explaination for every neg rep they get. It's really not a big deal. If they bother you...then try not to annoy people. If you live your life saying "I don't care what others think, I'm gonna speak my mind"....then don't worry about 'em.


People are going to give them because we can't please everybody all the time....and its way too easy to misunderstand or misinterpret something someone says in this medium. If the neg-rep bothers you...then learn from it. If you can't/won't learn from it...then ignore it. You don't have to "explain yourself" to anybody.
