That means if I neg-rep you today, the fastest I could neg-rep you again would be 10 days later.

Yeah, that's giving out rep, I was referring to receiving.

If you have neg feedback, I just seen it as you prob deserved it. I say take care of the ones who abuse the system Greg, or hand them over to Doric.

To be honest, I don't pay much attention to people's eReps when I'm going through various threads. Although if I see some stupid comments, and see that the person has neg rep, then I understand why.

but there use to be an option to turn it off yourself, it seems to have disappeared.

I would think the main problem comes from people in OT. The noobert threads that get moved there or start in OT are probably the main cause of people complaining. I know this because I get PMs once in a while from noobs asking what the heck are peoples problems. These PMs are 99 percent of the time linked to an OT thread

To be honest I neg rep people in OT often for no real reason. But I only do this to the "regulars" and they don't give crap(and get me back). The problem starts when you start neg reping people you are not familiar with
