Seperate / Hidden forum for reporting Reputations and Infractions.

Very good idea we'll look into implementing this

I can't add much more than what's been already said, Alex covered why there's a way round the private infraction reports (Mods need to learn from the few mistakes they make etc) but I do like the private reputation reports sub section/forum, it's unfortunate to see someone abuse the reputation system in the way you've observed (and experienced) and this is very likely to fix it so I'm all for it.

As to someone continuing to -rep you, it would be interesting to know what action takes place to the member who continues to -rep each time. Perhaps if they knew they would think twice about doing it.

There's two umbrella's of rules that that sort of behaviour might come under, at it's heart it's essentially a form of mild bullying (dependant on what the comment is about and how abusive it is) but it can also come under the reversal or ignoring of a Moderators actions to a certain extent. I'm still technically a Moderator and, by re issuing a reputation that I've just removed, the issuer would be reversing my actions. :8
Either way, there's infractions and warnings for both and usually a short caution can be issued if there's enough evidence, which denies the issuer the right to rep for a while.
