To all the Karma- whores............

But if you see Coblin or someone, who's stayed here for a while and has like 250 karma then that person is a "good" person and their help and advice can generally be taken seriously. (I'm lost for words. Don't know what appropriate adjective I could put for "good" in this case.)

I'd say 'respectable' or 'honourary' person. I like adjectives.

So someone who has negative karma is not that well respected right?
I remember someone posting up physics and maths exams today? That was generous, but why does that person have negative karma?
Sorry, Im new to this place.

Was that person Cloud by any chance?

[dekoyl]

I think so

Well he's done some things people find annoying and dislike. However he is 'changing' like his signature says.

[xox.happy1.xox]

He used to possess more -ve karma, but we have tried to forgive him for what he has done along the way.

Karma is overrated.

AMEN

[Eriny]

Karma is strange. Occasionally I look at other peoples karma history and it has nothing to do with quality contributions. Thus, it is fun but not as meaningful as one might think.

I say we abolish the karma system.

No, I believe it's a good idea. It challenges vcenotes users to make quality posts and its gives us a good idea on the behaviour on each individual.

While we're on the subject, why did i receive a negative karma? I feel vilified for no good reason.

Is it just me or have many of the moderators (not all) on this forum become  "crazy with power" (lol)?  When someone saids something they don't agree with their response is to call them a "retard" or in the case of "gangs" ban them from the site.

For a post that was so bad that you even deleted it yourself, I would gather based on the post linking in your karma page.

Pretty sure its just you. We rarely, if ever, use our powers. And, if we do, it's clear who did it and what was done.

ganges was banned for making racist posts, which is clearly against the terms of use when you sign up to be a member

I don't really want to get into it (we all know what happened with the religion and Muslim threads) but if you actually read what he wrote it wasn't that offensive i thought (even though i don't agree or support what he said). U should listen to some of the conversations i hear on the train every day. Sorry off topic, i know.
