Karma

Personally I feel it might be a good idea to let the user being karma-'d see which post was tagged. Not who tagged it.

But if you could see "you've gotten 2 negative karma from this post," or "you've gotten 1 posive karma from this post," or "you've gotten 1 negative and 3 positive karma from this post," you could look at the post and learn from it.

"Oh, posting stupid dribble like this got me negative karma? I shouldn't make these types of posts anymore!"

"Posting this insightful opinion and/or witty banter got me positive karma! Not only do I feel good knowing people liked what I had to say, but I'm encouraged to contribute positively like this more often!"

(That's totally what people think to themselves)

Nailed it! This is a great idea.

Yes, I like this one.

From now on karma is being logged (standard SMF on which Gathering is built doesn't log karma). I'll add UI sometime in the future.
