I've only seen one or maybe two people flip out when they get negative rep. I'm not going to judge the whole community by the reactions of a few. In fact, I think seeing so few people flip out over it is a good sign. And when I say that we're mature enough to handle it, I mean giving as well as receiving -- again, I haven't seen many people go leaving negative rep willy-nilly, just to do it.
The hearts instead of asterisks is just a joke.
It's not because people "couldn't handle the asterisks." It's just cute.
