Default Scoring system

Just some user feedback, I'm not a fan of the new scoring system. It seems like a great idea at first, but I have seen on other forums this type of function being wildly misused. Soon the scoring system will become a joke between users and of no real value in evaluating a user's advice. It is all too easy for one person with extra time to search past posts and drop a particular user's score to zero without even reading the posts.

Scoring systems like this I have seen become only popularity contests and users who are not well liked by only a few posters end up with very low scores regaurdless of how usefull their advice may be. (Think moderators and administrators)
