Cryptic, you are bitching about your rep, because as you see it, there is a problem with the rep system and that problem is happening to you.

Yes, there is. No, we're not going to do it. If people want to rep and attach their name (like Atmosfear famously does) then good on them. But if negrepping automatically tells you who did it, people will just neg each other like babies; "this is for negging me, you dick". You don't have some right to disagree with people's reps or fight back.

The fact is people are negging you because they don't like your posts. They wouldn't negrep someone with a "test" if they liked that person or that person's posts, and I think that's fairly obvious. Coqauvin summed this up nicely: just because people put shit in the explanation doesn't mean they don't still hate your post.

You're not getting negrepped because people want to play with the system. People are playing with the system because they can, while negrepping you.

You're good at reexplaining what I say in clearer terms.
