Title: I've been reborn
Post by: Ka Honu on December 13, 2011, 05:26:39 PM
Good to see old (meaning "long time" as opposed to "superannuated" although I'm seeing some of both here) friends.  Don't know how I'll keep up with yet another forum but we'll see what happens.  Aloha all.

T2 - I know I'm a Newbie 'cause it says so right between my name and my photo (in case I forget).  So my Newbie question of the day is, "What's the 'Karma' thing?

Was I the only one who read the title of this post and thought the turtle had gone and found religion?

The Karma thing is a soon to be removed feature ;D I don't really see a benefit, and only potential of frustration with it....

On another site it represents positive feed back to a thread  you know if a thread has say 2 reply's it's low but if it has lets say 23 reply's it adds points.

Sorta shows who has the most active threads from what I get of it

it was a rather sophomoric method of individuals having the ability to express their approval/disapproval of each post. Mix in personality, human emotion, and some knee-jerk reaction - and you get a great cocktail.
One that like,  the Molotov-  is divisive and quickly can become a resource to segregate an otherwise harmonious group.

I saw it on other sites become a sophomoric psych. tool for snapsot evaluation of a persons credibility, and....popularity.

We ain't in high school anymore Toto ;).  SO I asked Rick ( admin) to axe it.

So if I offended a lot of people, I'd have a really low Karma score?  Wow, how cool is that?  Mark me down for a large negative number, please - it'll save everyone having to vote.
