Is this a reasonable reason to -rep me?

    I'm generally new to steamrep and what it is, so I don't know much about how it works and I apologize in advance for errors I will more than likely say.

    So today I was trading a Sydney Straw Boat for a hat or strange of about the same/higher price.

    I was added by a certain character that wanted to trade me a painted hat. Like alot of people I generally don't want to get any painted hats because it's generally harder to trade away, some people may disagree but that is my opinion.

    I told this character that I did not accept painted hats. On my outpost post I never mentioned I did not want painted hats, but I assumed that people would do the 1:1 I was asking for.

    He decided to -rep me for this

    My question is, is this a reasonable reason to -rep me?

    Or am I overeacting about a -rep that doesn't matter.
    Thanks!

    profile rep means nothing as it is deleteable.

    Oh really? I wasn't aware of this.

    This is where my lack of knowledge really shows :L

    Can you tell me how?

    also, paint is removable on a hat... altho its often added value if its black, white, lime or any other bright higher value color.

    I had occasional hats with paint offered, but I offered based on price without.

    things that cannot be removed are:
    - gifted text (not to be confused with rename or description, which are removable as well)
    - untradable/uncraftable
    - type of item, like unique, strange, vintage, unusual, community, etc.

    if he's giving you a painted hat for no extra charge, take it.
    Depending on the paint color, you can even make a little extra on it.

    You also can't remove craft numbers for items that have been crafted.
    XenoCrab and DataStorm like this.

    Doesn't mean anything. From what you say, you're not in the wrong. Though you should always state what you don't accept clearly. :)
