abc006 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 make ie -11... yep, it should defenitely GO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tebjr Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Let it stay. It doesn't mean anything. It's all for fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yankee4Life Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I think the only ones who dislike it right now are the ones who are getting bad karmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abc006 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I think the only ones who dislike it right now are the ones who are getting bad karmas.i think that's probably true, but if you start getting -15, you'll have doubts too... let it stay for a bit, and then maybe in like a week or month see how it's going and start up the debate again.

abc006 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Once again, what does this feature do and what does it mean?you can "applaud" a person if you like them, or "smite" them if you hate them. It's basically a pointless number showing the popularity of a user on the forums. no real point to it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myztery Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 It means nothing. It's there just so people can see how well-liked a member is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldGlove Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 It doesn't "harm" anybody. You don't get banned, if your Karma is too low or something. But I can understand, when peopel like abc are annoyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRog Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 yeah for some reason i got a -1 and i dont know what i did wrong :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abc006 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 yeah, it's not as annoying getting negative karma, but as getting it, then not knowing what you did to deserve it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJEagles Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Keep it...It's all in good fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkB Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I wonder how many people caught the link to the song by The Clash in the thread title. abc, your karma is probably so low because you were actually asking for negative votes yesterday. Are you surprised that people complied with your request? I say keep it for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeyMcM93 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I think the only ones who dislike it right now are the ones who are getting bad karmas. True, but just the fact that people are already complaining about it makes me think it will cause problems sooner or later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOLlol... well, it was all part of an experiment to see the limit for how low you could get negative/positive karma, but then when i found out i couldn't say it was only an experiment and have my cano sig in the same thing, i stopped it... but most of my negative votes have come after i stopped it, which is really bugging me... oh well.

fred13 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Its not necissarily a like/dislike thing. Its if someone makes a useless post then you smite them. If they make an interesting/posotive post, you applaud them. abc, it is beyond me how your karma has gone so low. I havn't seen you make any senseless posts.

rolliefingers08 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 could care less, and maybe just ban people who ***** about it. there's a reason you have -13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Unit Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 It's kinda fun, even though I have -2. It doesn't bother me. Maybe I can win people over with my dynasty lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolliefingers08 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 That's probably the only reason I have my good karma... otherwise there's few insightful posts out of me It was probably asked, but is there a place where we can see what posts got +/- karma?

Yankee4Life Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 i think that's probably true, but if you start getting -15, you'll have doubts too... let it stay for a bit, and then maybe in like a week or month see how it's going and start up the debate again. Hey look, all I got to do is lock a thread around here and I'll get 30 Smites from people. Or if I got to warn someone for doing something that they shouldn't have done. Then I'll get smites. It just hasn't happened yet. True, but just the fact that people are already complaining about it makes me think it will cause problems sooner or later. Could be, but right now I only see one person disliking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Campo09 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 The Karma rating is going to be great for this site... people will want to make there karma rating be high so they will post more meanigfull post and not just spam. Keep it Trues.. By the way ABC how is your karma at -21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
closetogenius Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 perhaps if we could access the data for what posts received karma and where the applauds and smites came from, others would be happier? karma sounds good to me (maybe another name for it though?) lets people see who the insightful, the contributing or the partisan posters are, allowing others to know who to go to for questions concerning a topic; encourages acceptable/significant posting; besides, it adds a little more color to the margin then again, u can abuse the system (which i think applauds/smites must come with comments, but i doubt that is econimical) actually, should we care so much about karma?
