I don't see any issue with it.
Rep points, these new points, and the regular modding.. none of which come into play if you follow the rules.
In an ideal world, every member would be nice, never start problems, never continue problems, and only chat about snake stuff and have fun.
In reality, there's always some people who want to act like butts, want to skirt the rules, or try to get away with whatever bad behavior they can. If this makes it easier for staff to moderate the site, then it's a good thing.
I'm not sure how it's supposed to be a bad thing?
