How do you give karma?

KillerWhale

Karma is given by "Applauding" or "Smiting" a person.

As far as I know, you need to reach a certain post count before you are allowed to influence one's karma.

Once you have reached this post count, you will see two links that say "[Applaud]" or "[Smite]".
Clicking "[Applaud]" will give +1 karma; "[Smite]" will subtract one.

This is how it works on other forums, at least. I haven't reached the point where I can influence karma quite yet. ;)

Smitten, actually.

which makes one think about when it happens romantically

literally like being hit with a club

(originally it meant to befoul)

I think it's 75. Keep asking about karma and you'll get there soon enough.

Amazingly, the person who crosses out other peoples posts, makes a funny joke about hit on, has +75 karma.  :o

Or posting random crap that nobody wants to hear just to increase your post count. Trust me.

On lighter news, If you want posotive karma, the best way to do so is to post things poeple want to hear. Ideas that contribute to the community. Make your own thread about something that might help the devs out, or something that may even revolutionie Trem for the better. Ill leave the latter to the smarter people.

Lol in 1 day I get from -2 to -11 karma.

your face

And if you wonder why...

Why does it matter? I always thought of it as some silly system of getting your anger out on strangers you don't even know. Careful, people who smite me often become missing.

karma is a system of letting the Tremulous community know who the trolls/idiots/not worth listening to people are as opposed to the 1337/godly/worth listening to poeple are.

mooseberry

Obviously you should be shunned.

Sarcasm aside the karma system is imo just a bunch of e-penis stroking. Does anyone actually care about those numbers?

Don't ask about karma. Its just another way people can smite you senseless :/.
The real world and computer world couldn't be further apart.
