Yes it is.
The system isn't meant to be abused. You should get negative rep only if you do something stupid/ annoying. Constant neg repping without any reason is pathetic and people have the right to bitch and moan about it.
Please don't give me the 'it's just an internet forum red boxes' thingy. I want the system to be restored and be the way it was back in the day.
It's the person's own opinion though. What if they think every single post you make is stupid/annoying? Just because you don't see it that person's way doesn't mean they don't have legitimate reasoning.
