Disable reputation system but keeping the "like" button

[noypiscripter]

Did you mean you want to hide those orange reputation bars below the username in the postbit section? If yes, add this in css_additional template or in Sitebuilder > Style > CSS Editor.

.b-meter { display: none; }

For disabling infractions, did you select No to all the User Infraction Permissions in the Usergroup Manager for administrators and moderators?
