The 'Original' Bug
[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]
No good way to remove stars/bolts from people
Since
starandboltonly take in positive integers, any form of taking away stars/bolts requires theeditcommand. which can be troublesome if you don't know the student's current star count. This may make it difficult for teachers that want to punish bad behaviour as well as reward them.

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug
[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]
Hi, thanks for the suggestion. Not allowing adding of "negative" stars was our design decision from the start when adding the stars feature, since the inclusion of negative numbers into command may be confusing for some people in our target audience.

Feature Flaw Description
The first thing I intuitively wanted to do after adding stars was to find a way to remove stars. The FAQ does mention that this is currently not supported, but this seems like a rather important feature to have.
Severity
Not a purely cosmetic issue in docs or UI, so cannot be VeryLow. While this is an inconvenience since many users would want to unstar, I gave this Low instead of Medium severity since the FAQ has a work around.
