Also you are limited to 10 upvotes a day so people cant do the opposite and go crazy!

I suppose an addition to this could also be that you can only downvote a post once so that you cant go back to it each day and downvote it because you don't like that paricular user.

I think something like this would be a good addition but to be honest it's not needed for the site.
In bold is exactly what happened when this site had a rep system and people kept bitching and moaning about it, saying they were being victimised and picked on, until it was removed.
