Kinda irrelevant but what I'm saying is get over it? We had our fun, it adds to the excitement of the tournament, and it makes the next game better (as long as theres not a giant lag spike to change the outcome of the game T_T)

Just quoting to say that I disagree with Nirvanas rep and would counter-rep if I could. Negrep shouldn't be put as a disagreement with someones opinion, it should be used when someone is abusive (but not to the point an infraction is warranted).

It's been on the chatbox: I don't exactly log every bad thing I've ever had said to me, you know. I'm definately the douche here, stepping forward to set the record straight and then having you randomly present your opinion where it's both un-necessary and rude. Yup. I've been a prick to many people and in many ways, but here, you need to shut the **** up.

Also, why is this thread not locked?

You can't just decide to change the way things have been done in this community for over a decade because they do it slightly different in tennis dude.

edit: counter example, basketball playoffs, they play BoX series, i'm sure the teams shake hands at the end of every game, not just the end of the series-ending game.

Just wanted to say your counter-example did make me sit here think about it for a moment and I can't do anything but agree. I just don't want people to get the wrong opinion when I don't gg a game in a series: I always say ggs wp at the end of a series -- It's not meant as bad manner, or to insult my opponent.

Although this is slightly offtopic, I'd quite like to touch on this:

As far as I'm aware, the reputation system is designed to be literally that - how good a community member's reputation is given the value of their posts.

Using reputation to disagree, IMO, sort of defeats the purpose of the system. Everyone's entitled to their opinions, and I think disagreement is healthy - it shouldn't affect the reputation of the poster.

Negative reputation should probably be reserved, like tgun mentioned, for abusive posts, or posts with no constructive value.

Disagreeing with someone via a reply, rather than negative rep, allows a more expansive discussion, which is what a forum environment is for.

I agree with you: my problem was, someone could generally be a good member of the community and suggest ideas and receive negative reputation because people would disagree; they would be receiving negative rep purely for suggesting things, not for being abusive / generally a bad person.
