Nah, I agree with you 100%. I -repped someone who had insulted me. His post even got edited by a moderator so surely that's more than a valid reason to -rep yet it was removed. I was going to make a very similar thread to this later today because I've noticed this too.
I +rep posts that are constructive and helpful to me. I -rep posts that are rude and unnecessary. OK, some of mine deserve to be removed, admittedly. However, the thread as of late is basically used for people to get their -rep removed when really some of the -rep that has been removed is valid.
I've already been in contact with MattGarner about this but he told me to PM nvrspk4. I just haven't got around to it yet. I agree with you totally and things need to be reviewed. I can understand how the system is supposed to work, getting revenge and pointless rep removed but at the present time it isn't working like that.
