The problem about the rep system is that it creates an elitist feel more than already exists in the community. It quickly evolves into who is more popular and who are people trying to band together against. It also encourages multi-accounting with respect to rep increasing and scam potential with the trade forum.

Like him, I do get the whole points on this +/-rep thingy but there are certain things you can't change by just applying this system. troll is always be a troll no matter what forum they're in. and good/responsible members will always come to the rescue...xD
We see the advantages of rep system however the disadvantages could outweigh these for our particular forum.
Also, the rep system isn't bad, it's good, but there are people who abuse it, like you said, alt accounts, we know some people who used to do it in the past, probably doing it right now as well, we can't do much about it. It's sad though, the reputation doesn't mean anything, I saw on MOBAFire and SMITEFire, people begging for +rep and so on, I guess they're not respected in real life if they want respect on a forum.
