Karmaout

[george7244]

Out of curiosity would someone explain to me what the karma by your name means. I know you have positive and negative karma but what is considered poaitive and what is negative and who decides. Not complaining but just curious

[george7244]

Did not proofread. It is supposed to be karma and not karmaout. Also supposed to be positive and not poative

[HorseFeathers]

It's decided by people clapping or slapping you. .

[george7244]

Explain that please and how is this accompolished. Thanks

Shows up under your name when you use a desktop, not on most phones.

If someone thinks that you have an insightful position or post, they can click on the clap to give you a clap. Or, you and your little buddies can clap each other up so everybody feels good about themselves.

Of course, if someone disagrees with a post, or your school, or your user name, or any other random reason, they can smite you with a slap to make you feel bad about yourself and to show the rest of the board that you are a bad, bad person. They may also message their friends and have them slap you to get around the hour wait to smack you again. Or, they can log out and back in to their other account to slap you again. If you manage to tick off a moderator, they can set your karma to whatever they feel like. (DISCLAIMER - I only saw that happen several years back before the mod in question went down in flames and got himself banned.) I love moderation.

I hope this helps.

[george7244]

Appreciate the explanation. I think it's funny as heck

[HorseFeathers]

True fan, out of curiosity who was that moderator ?   and eddie goodson has his negative maxed out to.

[george7244]

How come i don't have a clap or a slap by my name. I feel as though my negative account is too low. Lol

[AirWarren]

Eddie Goodson been slapped around more than Lionel Ritchie.

[True Fan]

HF, all I'll say about that is that it was a man of the cloth from south Arkansas.

You can't clap or slap yourself.

Trolls will be slapped a lot, but seriously, who bothers to do it, it seems childish.

[SNWA]

lets all rally and get Ricepig back above 500 percent....5 more claps

[HorseFeathers]

if you have positive karma then your not doing something right

[ricepig]

Wow, SNWA, what have you been doing wrong?

I couldn't agree more about the childish part

[SNWA]

I received a good positive to negative karma ratio from the track and field forums. We have each other's backs in there and clap a lot (this is getting weird).

cuckoobird is right, though, negative karma isn't always an indicator of trolling or being a bad poster. Having a unpopular opinion or being a fan of a school that has a lot of rival fans on the board will increase that negative karma.

I'm pretty sure most of my slaps come from Harrison fans during basketball season.

Nashville and Warren fans slap like little britches........

The vast majority of my slaps came from tangling with the one guy. I don't think I even replied to him. He was way out there so I gave him a little smack. He figured out it was me somehow, slaps jumped up and I got some ugly pm's. Don't know if he was just setting them or actually took the time to keep slapping. I started a couple of threads asking about the abuse of power by mods and was shut done real quick. A different mod explained to me that I better watch it, he didn't know anything about what started it. But, that the mod in question was the salt of the earth and above questioning. The dude was banned within six months.


It's funny because I won't be on here for a week and my karma changes, both ways. I guess folks are late getting offended by old posts, or are still holding a grudge about something.

I would probably be maxed out if not for the review feature. I type a lot of stuff that never makes the board.

[DogsWin7]

My karma changes when I'm not on or haven't posted in awhile too....oh well.

Just turn the other cheek....

[Eddie Goodson]

Eddie Goodson been slapped around more than Lionel Ritchie.

Half of them came from accusing Billy Dawson and Bo Hembre of running up the score in games.

I think half of mine are for the same thing
