Negative rep for helping somebody.

Things like this is better to just report it directly to the mods by using the report button.
It saves you from the drama that ensues.

I'd say either report it to a mod, hope that someone will fix your reps, ignore it, or don't help anyone out...

Usually people that complain about -rep tend to get more...

does it really....
matter?

Got -rep for trying to help in request. Linked everything the op wanted.
To then later see that somebody necro bump'd the thread. (the thread was from 2011)
His answer: (The thread was about Games of thrones) Season 2 was awesome! [insert youtube video]
He removed his post. And people then thought i necro bump'd.

Didn't give a fuck then, neither do i give one now.

Ask a mod to fix that up.
Not that rep matters anyway.
But you did a good job helping around..

Eat my -rep for complaining about such a trivial thing.
