The slickdeals owner has made clear that this forum is for the public on countless occasions.  Negative repping has also been disabled because of abuse and only moderators can do it, but they rarely use it.</description>

		<description>I might be wrong about giving negative points. This used to be the case but it sounds like it was disabled because of abuse. However I know for sure there are closed forums that ordinary folks have no access to.
