      Whats the Karma thing about?? and how do u make it go up??

    • Oh god..

      Let me tell you right straight and now. NEVER ask these questions.. It is the best way to peeve the moderators. They're going to point you to some web-board guidelines page that'll bore your eyes out and lock the topic up. Karma is just some dumb way of rewarding you that really doesn't matter at all. Just be a good boy, and stay out of the moderator's gait.

      Nuff said.

    • In order to learn about what karma is, please read the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/guidelines.html")Web Board Guidelines(/url), which you can go to when you are writing your post. Its above all the places where you type in stuff and is clearly marked.

      What is karma? Here is the answer:

      Quote

      From the Web Board Guidelines:

      Karma is a measure of a person's standing on the web boards; 0 is neutral, negative is bad, positive is good. Everyone starts with neutral (0) Karma. Moderators can warn (lower karma) or praise (raise karma) people based on their posts. If your Karma has been affected by a moderator, you will be eMailed the details of why your Karma was affected, and by whom. If Karma becomes too negative (-10 or worse), that person is banned from the web boards until a moderator raises their Karma.

      If you follow the these web board guidelines, you will not have a problem with your Karma.

      It's also best not to ask about karma or how to get it. It sometimes annoys moderators and other members, so it's best not to start off like that. 🙂

    • No reason to point him to a web-board guidlines page, you've summed it up pretty well right there.

      Just to elaborate a bit, though: "stupid" isn't a good adjective to use for the karma system (Alien 5672, I'm looking at you... :p), don't ask a moderator to raise your karma, don't complain about karma drops (unless its a legit reason), and most importantly, just don't be an idiot. Idiocy never helps karma.

      As for the topic being locked, good guess! 😉

      Edit: Bleh, damn you Carno, you beat me to it just because I had to eat lunch. 😛

      ...And this is one way NOT to act like if you ever want positive karma. Alien, please act up better.
