It means that karma whoring is gonna be less popular, hopefully.

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

So if I get negged, does it take away from my 264 or my 100 karma score? Someone neg me please. Just one though ;)

DylanW18

Just did. It doesn't effect the 100. I'll give the + back tomorrow

Spencer Addington

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

DylanW18

So why not just ditch karma.... I'm so close to quitting these forums

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

Spencer Addington

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

I just find it hilarious that Piotr repeatedly says Karma doesn't matter, then jiggers with it to stop "whoring."


So much this

TheRecklessPlaneswalker

Well honestly karma is opinion, I just got negged.

So....does it really matter?

No.

Everyone equal? God forbid ;)

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)
