De-repping

Can regular people de-rep, or just mods?

I cant seem to find the button...

Its kinda annoying when people spam and you just have to wait for mods to clean up the threads or de-rep other people, although of course i have no doubt that when you find the spam you will be un-discriminative with the de-reping...

You should use the report bad post button in those situations.

Yeah, this is the best way to do it. If you ever want me to personally deal with something, send a PM my way and I'll be glad to figure out what's going on and act accordingly.

To answer your question, though, only administrators can negrep for X where X is any natural integer. Moderators have limited neg-repping power in their own domains as well. Normal users cannot access it at all.

It used to be the case that anyone could neg rep.

It was terrible.

Yeah, I wasn't around at that time but from reading the ancient FAQ's (about rep), I hear people were having the opposite of what they do at the Hive: Neg-rep parties. Just randomly neg-repping people all over the place.

And that is why you can't Neg-Rep.

Is there actually any users with the fabled purple rep next by their name? I think I saw someone but I'm not sure.

Purple rep? zomg!

Purple rep is just an extremely low amount of rep. Werewulf got that when she got banned, for example.
