as some need to know their behavior is rude
If you really want to make that known to another person, use the PM function. An anonymous -1 is not going to do the trick there, and as it turns out it will only become a 'well look at my power to punish you' function.
PMs are an escalation, while a plus, minus or neutral is one and done. It's not anonymous, as the username shows up next to the plus, minus and neutral rating and in the case of the negative, the poster has to fill in the reason box.

We all would like to know if the opinions we express meet with the approval of others and, equally, it is nice to be able to express our approval without having to lodge a post saying simply, 'Thank you'. Negative ratings are open to abuse in that they can be given against someone who simply disagrees with another member or challenges their opinions. If someone is rude, they can be reported to the moderators. Neutral ratings are just that, neutral, and seem to have no value whatsoever.
Positive ratings are also open to abuse, like devolving into cliquishness. Mods are hardly impartial and you shouldn't be going to them for every slight experienced, so selecting negative or neutral is enough.
