I'm pretty sure this was probably already mentioned before, but could there be a way that we just do not have negative rep, or does the community feel like that still would be abused? Unless I'm mistaken, the issue is more so with mass negative rep voting, so if we got rid of that option, it would be a solid answer.
Positive reputation shows us who a lot of people agree with (yes bias is going to be involved, we're humans. We naturally are going to be more inclined to like what someone says if we're friends with them.) and we don't have to have the -1 feature to show that we disagree with something. We can easily have a response saying "I disagree with you because of X reason."
Just my thoughts, but I'm feel that a lot of what I just said are rehashed and regurgitated statements. I feel as if it's a win-win because the web staff don't really have to monitor mass rep manipulation as much and the people who don't want to type out an agreement statement can just click the +1.
