Ok now I understand the concept of karma, but I dont mean to be nooby but is plus karma good here or bad, Im struggling to define the context. Eg plus karma could mean that you have that much "good" karma or it could mean karma is going to bring some heavies and break your door down. burst into your bathroom and turn your doodle into a cocktail sasuage and then proceed to insert a large pointy stick into your new party snack.

And I thought Evlesoa had problems with his frights.
But this beats all.

Here almost no-one has positive karma is not necessarily because they did wrong. It maybe because someone felt like smiting everyone. On these forums, I'd say the more negative you are the more popular you are. ('cept for admins and mods)

Unless you're caveman
AMIRITE

Wow, and I thought I was paranoid. You definately need some sort of mental examination. Karma is good. But apparently on here, the more negative karma you have, the longer you have been a forum poster.
-
Yeah, karma is good on this system, it's just that everyone on this forum apparently hates everyone else. Welcome to Hell. :D
-
I don't bother with karma, it gets treated like crap. It gets the brains abused out of it, and that's why I don't use it.
I like the rep. system on GF. That way, newbies can't bring down your reputation because they felt like it.
-
You should not care about that karma-stuff. The only really good thing about it is that it indicates those people that are really retarded, for they will have a karma like -9999 or so. In any other case, karma simply does not matter.
-
CONFESS MANWELL!!!
-
Well, karma doesn't really matter, as everyone else here has said.
The lower your karma, the more popular you are (with the exception of Caveman, who's just hated by everyone).
HOORAY NEGATIVE KARMA!!!!!!!!
-
Oh damn... I still have positive karma.
OH TELL MY, LORD OF MY ANCESTORS, WHAT DID I DO WRONG?
;D
-
K, zybork...thou have been smitten in effort to make you popular via negative karma.
Will you comply?
-
Too ruin peoples days i just try to get them to zero if they are in the negatives :P
-
Yeah, karma doesn't really apply anywhere. Most people on the MG forums have negative karma (I have -64). Negative can mean either A: You posted something that pissed people off; B: Some one hates your views; or C: You got smitten just for the hell of it.
-
i need a giant smite button in my sig... that will be cool...
-
On a side topic, what is cavemans problem? he was ridiculing me in the tech section for being a bit dim when it came to a error with my GUID, hell I thought the support forums were for help not a poor attempt a witty sarcasim.
-
dont worry about caevbag... hes here to annoy and make it more entertaining here.... JUST KIDDING... xD
-
I think that negative karma is normal here.
We should treat those with positive karma as outsiders and should shun them...
SHUN!
-
Onoz, dunt shun meh! I didnae do nuthin'!

TRU DAT
smite me or i'll applaud you! xD

If even I have a positive Karma, then there is something seriously wrong with the people having a negative Karma.

you have +ve karma because you are a mod. personally i love my -ve karma, smite me more!
-
LC you really have turned into a politician.

Personally I hate this type of karma system.
I get smites all the time whenever I make a post about an idaea being bad even if I'm polite and I give several reasons to base my opinion on. Whereas when I post a shoopdawhoop and my karma rises. And yes I noticed the tendency... -> it is based on grudge and not constructive posts...
I once visited a forum of an MMO browser based strategy (queosia.com - the english version) and it had a karma system where you had to tell why you gave - or + karma and it showed to the victim. Also the higher karma you had the more it counted. And if you were in negative your smites/applauds didn't count. I'd love that instead of this or more likely I'd love if this karma would be turned off...
ed.: lol I post this and another smite... it'd be good to know at least which posts of mine attract the smiters :o -2 now! Lava also had his dropped by 5 now, just after his post. See? ::) - complete nonsense...
-
Nobody is actually reading your post Tycho. Your karma is just too bigs! HURRY HURRY, PUT OUT THE KARMA, HURRY HURRY, PUT OUT THE KARMA...
-
Maybe there are a few nice applauder guys here too :o :laugh:
-
hmmm I guess karma sys would be nice also without smiting.
when I see something that i like and i have nothing more to add for that, i simply applaud.
but if something is wrong, there is more reason to explain than smiting - that would just boost the dumb posters.
or is this problem too global? ^^
btw/ofc, I like the trolling and negative replies also if it's coming with a cute bunch of humour.
-
I am obviously popular.
-
I find Karma an amusing mlittle thing, too mlook at, and maybe even tweak other peoples.
-
I have achieved perfect balance in life, and have maintained a Karma of 0, despite my activity on the forums. Or maybe no one really cares about me. *Sniff*
On a side note, Timbo has huge positive Karma, and someone had negative 300 or something.

LC you really have turned into a politician.
And you are slowly changing from a cool guy into a random troll, sadly.
