re: What to do when asked to be a reference for someone you don't want to refer?

But in reality, what good is it to keep someone down that has no effect on your life?
Holding other people back from their next best opportunity is a real shitty move.
As you can plainly see from NFL Quarterbacks, they’ll flounder at one club and win the Super Bowl at another.
Give them a nice reference and forget about it.

References are dumb. I've never hired anyone based on a reference. The applicant will always give the "best of the best" when it comes to references. I assume that they are smart enough to do this. If they aren't, I don't want them working for me.

Yeah and I have seen no correlation between how someone performs as an intern and how they perform as a real world employee. I have seen some stellar interns that when pressure is put on them at a real job they fall apart and I have seen some horrible interns that are earning more money than an operator because they are so good when it really counts.
