Why is there a reputation system on this site?
I want to make this clear, the idea of a reputation system on a Q/A website is foolish. Why would you create a system that prevents people from posting their ideas, comments, etc. isn't that the point of the site? To ask and answer questions freely? What made you think restricting peoples access to express them and their opinions was a good idea?
For the sake of this website I would recommend removing this system, because it may make people feel like their opinions do not matter, so please remove it before it becomes a problem. If you choose not to then that's how you choose to handle it, I'm just suggesting an alternative that allows people to ask/answer questions without having to earn a right we already have, that being "freedom of speech" which the reputation system stands in the way of.
