I am just wondering why banned people's reps are still valid. I feel that, if they were banned, they should not be trusted with who they through their reps out to. Just a thought.

Ghost Reps

In my mind, even the best posters can go south, and eventually be banned. A poster shouldn't (again, IMHO) be punished for a repper's banning.

If someone feels as you do about a banned member, they can feel free to remove said Rep point. ![[Image: Evolution.png]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i1118.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fk619%2Fjcincain%2FPublic%2FEvolution.png) 
I agree with c172.
Some banned members reps are still meaningful. Not all, but some.

In that case, I might support the right to ask mods/admins to remove it. But nothing automatic.

Generally, spammers don't rep.
I've never seen that. The only rep of mine that I would remove if I weren't so vain is he who shall remain unnamed.

He shall forever remain unnamed. Forever.

I just got my rep modified, but it didn't go up or down. Is there neutral?
