Here's what I posted a day or two ago on this situation.
--------
The problem with neg repping is that people don't always learn from it. I can't remember the legal terms I was taught in high school but it's something along the lines of specifc and general punishments. Specific punishes the indivdual and should hopefully learn from it. Where as general still punishes the individua; but the community should learn from it.
Therefore I've made this post twice in the last week more than neg repping (which I have done quite a bit in the past). I'm not saying this is the right way to handle the situation but I feel posting this will benefit the community more in a public way rather than a -neg rep silently/directly/specifically punishing the individual.
Here's what I've been positing.
It links to Wizgizmo shedding light on the situation as well as points out a thread very similar to this one.

I was personally going to -neg rep you just because you asked for it in your post but I remember coming across this response from a moderator talking about the situation so I just wanted to give you a heads up (and not a neg rep). But simply, asking for REP and Thanks is not the way to go on BHW. If you contribute something valuable you WILL recieve REP and Thanks so there is NO NEED to ask for it. Honestly it could also have an adverse effect as there are lots of members who WILL neg rep you just because you asked for "reps and thanks'
Here's a comment from Super Moderator "WizGizmo" on what's called RepBegging and I suggest you take his advice.

in fact, here's a whole thread on it which will spread even more light on the situation

I'm doing this because I don't want you to get -neg repped by people because you may not have known about it.
