I say let it stay as is for a couple of months or three, and re-assess.

Personally, I think it will be mostly ignored, except for childish fun (nothing wrong with that), so it's mostly just a waste of screen real estate. But I could be wrong, and after a few years, maybe there will be people with great negative numbers that we can all ignore to the community's benefit, and others with great positive numbers that we will revere. It's sort of like when you're in Amazon marketplace, and you're buying from someone with 93,000 ratings and an average of 4.9, you can be pretty sure you're in good hands (or perhaps being scammed big time). I understand the difference (on Amazon, in theory, only people with a business relationship can post ratings), but it may work anyway.
