When using the Mesh Current Method and you encounter a loop with a current source that is going opposite to the mesh current do you write it down as a negative current source?

Sounds right to me. You're asking about the KCL technique, right? :smile:
 
Actually I mean the Mesh Current Method which is a modified KVL (Kirchhoff Voltage Law).
