Why are negs only worth half power?

You ever get that feel where you just want want to neg the **** out of someone?

I just don’t understand why the negs are watered down. If I feel strong enough to rep someone for full power then I should be able to neg them for that same level of power.

Such a weird trick by BB.com

Hell the biggest reason I paid for the Platinum membership was to get the 100 percent neg ratio.
That alone is worth every penny.

Negs should be double or triple power. Time to get rid of all this rep inflation with a maintenance free system instead of having to manually remove rep power like some cuck tradie.

Yeah rep inflation is super real though. Back in my day, some guy had 63k reps and was considered a God. He had to have bought them or something.

Point is, back then if you had 1000 you were considered a whale. I'd be up for a massive rep reset on everyone. Lol imagine the rustled jammies

I can think of some medium-high reppers who'd be deep red pretty quick...

Your rep/neg power should get a multiplier based on the ratio of reps to negs in your current control panel.

For example if you are all green, you get something like 10X on reps/negs given.

If you are all red on the other hand, you get a 0X multiplier meaning that no matter what your reps are, they are absolutely powerless.

This would put a pretty huge dent in rep trading as rep traders are often such terrible posters that their CP is at best 50% green at any given moment.

Also make all reps/negs expire. All reps expire after 1 year, negs after 2 years.

No one gets to have ancient rep power while sitting back doing nothing. Getting consistently negged would also sting a lot more if they lasted longer than reps.
