Return to Question

I wrote a question about blocking certain characters in passwords. It became tremendously unpopular, and it seemed like everyone wanted to rain on my parade every day. Eventually, I "got it," agreed completely with what people were saying to me, and just wanted to withdraw my question so that my reputation didn't slide even further downhill. Unfortunately, the system is designed such that I can't withdraw my question or redeem myself. Instead, I just get daily reputation attacks. That's a terrible system, and it needs to be changed.

So I wrote a question about blocking certain chars on passwords. This became tremendously unpopular and it seemed like every day everyone wanted to rain on my parade. Eventually "I got it", agreed completely with what people were posting to me, and just wanted to withdraw my question so that my reputation doesn't slide even further down hill. Unfortunately the system is designed such that it won't let me withdraw my question or redeem myself here. Instead, I just get daily reputation attacks. That's a terrible system and needs to be changed.
