Stop users from adding rep to each other.. without disabling the rep bot

[Distance]

Hi i have got the thanks-hide hack where when a user clicks thanks it adds one rep point to the user whos post it was also showing the hidden content

I want to keep this but i want to stop users from being able to add rep by clicking the button and apporving the post. How do i do this, or how do i remove the link to approve/disaprove someones post
