Title: What the hell is going on?
Post by: Kaworu, the Fifth Child on June 14, 2014, 12:19:08 PM
Everybody has 100 karma! Is this some weird conspiracy, or is it hinting at something?
Wait.
There are 3 digits in 100.
1x3 is 3.
...
HALF LIFE THREE CONFIRMED.

Edit: not everyone, but most people.

Looks more that 100 is the cap.

Same here. I'm on the browser version rather than the app, I don't know if that matters.

How do you mean? Are we capped at 100?
Title: Re: What the hell is going on?
Post by: Piotr on June 14, 2014, 05:13:02 PM
Yes, partially.
Title: Re: What the hell is going on?
Post by: rarehuntertay on June 14, 2014, 05:15:46 PM
On posts, you will see a max of 100. If you go into your profile, you will see your actual amount. I guess this is to make everyone appear equal?
Title: Re: What the hell is going on?
Post by: Piotr on June 14, 2014, 05:19:14 PM

What's the purpose of that?  IMO, karma is earned. I honestly don't even know how you'd ".bore." it.  I was actually pretty proud of my karma, considering a lot of it was from trades. I'd either say do away with karma altogether or let it be.

This is very communist. You've lowered us all to equal footing so we can all appear as equals? What is going on? That's against your beliefs Piotr. And I'm very upset, as I just broke 200 karma and now it doesn't matter anymore. No one is even going to give or take karma now. What's the point? Either keep it, or ditch it. Don't muddy up the forums with this bullshit

Title: Re: What the hell is going on?
Post by: Spencer Addington on June 14, 2014, 08:58:00 PM
So if I get negged, does it take away from my 264 or my 100 karma score? Someone neg me please. Just one though ;)
Title: Re: What the hell is going on?
Post by: DylanW18 on June 14, 2014, 08:58:38 PM
Just did. It doesn't effect the 100. I'll give the + back tomorrow
Title: Re: What the hell is going on?

Lolol that's hilarious. So it doesn't matter at all. Karma has now become absolutely pointless.

Then do, if your going to disrespect the creator and owner of the app, why post that your ALMOST goin to leave. If your not happy here then just leave.
Not saying this in a mean way at all. Just want everyone at peace 😀

Yeah I'm pissed that my karma dropped, but more importantly it's his hypocrisy...


And the reason I stay is for the people, not the creator

It's a silly thing to get mad at. Removing karma all together would have probably been a little better.

So you're becoming communist?  That's against your own law.  Stop with the hypocrisy plz.
You can be an egalitarian without being a communist.

Also, I both like and dislike the change. One-hundred karma allows us to distinguish between members that contribute and those who don't or are new (ie, whether you have a hundred karma or three hundred, you are still a contributer), but those with a lot of karma did earn it. Does something that makes you laugh deserve karma? Some say yes, others no, karma is for those who make more meaningful contributions. It is an interesting debate. (I say yes by the way)

Title: Re: What the hell is going on?
Post by: Walkhard on June 14, 2014, 10:17:51 PM
This isn't very protuctive. People will begin to not even use karma. It's a system I never really liked to be honest and I believe there are better ways to do what karma is set up to do. But this isn't the way to change it.
Not everyone is equel here. Some people are new/unknown. Some people contribute a lot through the rules or deck helps. Some people are very insightful in arguments and others just got it through being trusted through trades. You should have a system that rewards those behaviors.
What is the true point of making everyone seem equel? Was karma hoarding truly that big an issue?
This just seems poorly thought out and if you really wanted to make a change to the system for it to be more fair then ask the community their thoughts on it. Get opinions on new systems or tweeks to the current one. Don't ruin your PO even more by just changing everything without a word. Make people feel as they are welcome in the matters that you can.
You've basically made the people who've been here, put in the time, acted right feel as it was pointless. Encourage that behavior.

Hang on, am I seeing this right? Does the word "w-h-o-r-e" edit into "lady"? That is really offensive to me. I feel more strongly about this issue than putting a cap on karma.

Correction, I do.  If I went and told people that I was on a forum that changed the word w-h-o-r-e into lady, people would ask what the hell is wrong with me.  And I know that they would demand to know who made that change.  Have a sense of morality and decency.

So what, in your opinion, does karma mean?  If it indeed matters to you, there has to be a reason.
