I just got -1 karma for quoting Monty Python!
Why? I was just trying to show how to insult people without swearing! Now I have to post 100 more times...

Man don't be stupid and annoying like me, that's my advice to you. Guiding someone or at least trying to make them go to the nice and good side of the karma. When you do something wrong you get punished but when you do someting right you get rewarded. Listen to that advice why don't you. And don't spam. I should get a good karma point for that very good advice in my opinion. Hope Mods see this post that I typed and read all of it.

UE General, please stop trying to promote yourself to get high karma. Just let the mods make the decisions and stop trying to persuade them to give you some karma points.

The part Entropy qouted from Monty python is really funny, I would post it here but I don't wan't to lose karma.

A good deed is its own reward. The reward just usualy goes to someone else.

The difference between good and bad Karma really dosen't make a difference, that is unless it gets too bad and they kick you off or something....

That's a quote from the diary of Anne Frank isn't it?

The best way to get upped karma is probably the chronicles, i've seen people with hundreds of posts more than me with a lower karma simply because they never posted a chronicle.
I know it's kind of backed up but try going to other web board chronicles, i use Cythera and EVO. No one's getting mad at me (I hope )

Well, I'm not ready to write an EVO story, and my plugin will probably never be finished. I guess I'll just have to do some sort of good deed.

Fortunately, my karma has gone back to its original state, so this topic is moot.

Because of a recent snowfall a tree just fell outside my house. Now, if I was outside I might have been crushed but instead your thread kept me at the computer. YOU SAVED MY LIFE!

I posted good advice (the weapon maths/myths topic) but my karma didn't rise! Also, if i make a plug-in will my karma rise?
And does the number of posts influence karma?

widowmaker:you live in the north, like me. now where's my 5 bucks?
also i suspect you live in north america since you said "5$" and not for example "5 marks" or "5 crowns".

Now will i get bad karma since i spam?

I really don't think so. I haven't seen any comparing, just people wanting to get their karma raised. Of course, we all want are karma raised, but some people actively go out and say "I hope this gets me good Karma!". Thats really the only bad thing about Karma.
