And this is important, why? It means something because you choose to make it mean something. You're the one who assigns these horrific meanings to it, and I don't see why someone letting you know that they dislike your post(s) is a bad thing - it's what the reputation system is
for.

I gave my reasons for it at the time. They're almost certainly still in the forum database, I don't really feel the need to make them again as they won't have changed.
