[Suggestion] Suggesting that the Negative Karma Button be Scrapped

[dkbit98]

I dont want negative Karma to be removed, and I can see many use cases for that to exist, especially since we don't have any trust feedback system in this forum.
Anything can be abused this days including karma, but that is not the reason to remove it, and admins can clearly see when this is happening.
Besides, I don't see how anything can be abused when we can only send 1 karma (both positive or negative) in 10 hours to one member, except with altaccounts.

I used negative karma very few times. I think it is important for users which usually have an aggressive behavior, os just spam low  quality content everywhere.

But I understand that this button can be heavily abused. Maybe there should be some limit to how often you can give negative karma, and at most 1 per user

I see no reason to remove the negative karma button. I think it is a good tool for all forum users with which they can express or in some way punish the bad behavior of other users, among other things, such as disrespect, insults, possible scams and more. As a user I only use positive karma, but as a moderator I don't need it, since I have other types of tools.

As we have said on other occasions, the abuse of negative karma to “attack” a user is unlikely if not impossible, since with the restrictions of the karma system, (only every 10 hours) no user or group of users would have time to do something before the administrator resolves the problem, so I think there is nothing to worry about.

1. Users are likely to abuse this button for no other but selfish reasons.
2. We already have the "Report" button on every post/comment which can be used in place of a negative Karma.

Negative Karma is a feature of AltcoinsTalks forum, and it can be abused like any other feature.

I think it is a valuable option because I don't like the "Report" button being abused. "Report" should only be used when there is a really serious problem and the post should be removed from the thread.

With Negative Karma, we have more options for members to interact with each other's posts:

1. Like = +Karma for really interesting posts.
2. Dislike = no interaction or just normal reply.
3. Hate = -Karma for posts with very poor quality or personal attacks.
4. S.O.S = report posts that violate forum rules.

The Op list is good but as you said not all post ls need to be reported but the negative karma just give the final judgement to the user and once he or she sees the -Karma then the person would restructure him or herself. And as me let the -Karma stay because it humble some people who are insulting others without no course. Because such comments attract -Karma.

Fivestar4everMVP if you dont like negative karma so much than we can ask admin to remove this from your profile and you wont be able to send it anymore
If we had some voting for this I think that most of the people would choose to keep negative and positive karma.
