Re: Negative rep a no no conversation?

- Negative rep is not displayed beyond being gray
- The community team has now opted out of the rep system entirely. You can't give us rep, we can't give you rep, and our reputation shows as neutral. Reputation is now a community-only tool.
- The number of rep posts you can see has now increased from 10 to 20 (if anyone has feedback on the change, please let us know).
- The Profile Pages showing current activity was a misconfiguration and has been fixed (it was an artifact of Who's Online being enabled for some secondary usergroups when it shouldn't have been).
- Yes.
This prevent people from trying to farm a red rep bar - you'd be surprised at how often this happens. Green bars will only grow to a maximum length, then stop, so over time that balances out.
