I know some people think this will cause unnecessary drama, but come on. Are we really that immature that we get offended by a little red square on the internet?
I've been on forums that had reputation points and thanks/like systems in place, and quite frankly, I like that MB doesn't have any of that. More often than not, people will make posts or threads that are intentionally designed to gain rep points from other members. Then there are other people who will get all butthurt and whiny because they got negative rep, or because a similar answer got rep and they didn't. That's the problem I have with those systems.
