I figured I'd give this a shot to see how it is. I can just disable it if people find it distracting or it gets abused.
-
Aaaaand...How do you increase/decrease someone's karma?oO
-
Nice, something to do at work.

You need to be more established on the forums. I put some post and time limits on to reduce potential abuse. After you've been around for a while, you'll see "[ + ] [ - ]" under the ratings, which you can click on.
-
I can only use karma every 730 hours!?!??!111
-
funny
This will be fun, is there anything that can let us rate threads too?
that would be nice :)
-
cute

Per person. At least I think that's the way it works. Once a month, basically.
-
teeeheee i'm going for the worst record
-
teeeheee i'm going for the worst record
That type of thing is probably going to make me get rid of it.
-
Why? If anyone actually cares what their stupid rating is, then wow.
-
I care. MUST BE RESPECTED BY 2 WEEK NEWBIES LIKE SKATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
A nice avatar would be better.
-
i second that avatar thing, i liked mine in the other forum lol
-
good stuff :)

I dugg you down for not using smiles in the first post of a thread. :P
-
So if im a good boy my karma gets better and if im naughty it gets worse?
-
yeah maybe im just slow but i'm really not understanding how this karma thingy works......
-
why did i just go negative?
-
Once you have more posts, you can click on the + or - under somebody's name to impact their karma.
-
how many posts do you need?
-
ahhh ok...thats why it was making me confused. cool, not as slow as i thought i was, haha. so what happens when your karma gets really high or really low? do ya get a prize for behaving or beaten severely for being a peckerhead? ya know, like an incentive program. incentives are important, learned that in rehab. lol cap'n ron ftw.
-
nightryder: At the moment, 50 posts are required, but please don't go spamming up the forums so you have enough posts to rate people.
Gremlin: No awards.
-
why did i just go negative?
Your commrads have determined that your karma is more negative than positive. If you click on the [ + ] or [ - ] under the user's name, that's how you can change his or her karma levels. But be warned, you can only change a specific members karma once every 700+ hours....
on edit: pwned by bbs code again.

You need to be more established on the forums. I put some post and time limits on to reduce potential abuse. After you've been around for a while, you'll see "[ + ] [ - ]" under the ratings, which you can click on.
So that means that three people clicked on your [ - ] for whatever reason.
-
And I just clicked on your [ + ] <3
***edit: Out of curiosity, does $+ work on the forums? [ $+ + $+ ]
***edit2: No. :'( :-\
-
I think it's rather pointless in a forum with content matter such as this one. It's obvious its going to be abused, and frankly it has no purpose in the first place.
-
The karma meter is a waste of forum space and has already proven itself to be useless. It's already been clearly abused as the people using it are supposed to click the - if a person's reply is of a negative nature and + if it is of a positive nature. I had -10 before I got to my 6th reply after it was implemented so it's not hard to figure out the fact that some are clicking - simply because they don't like me. It's also not hard to figure out who they are either.
Most of my replies have been of a friendly nature and there haven't been any problems on the forum until today as far as abusive users are concerned.
Hopefully those guys will be dealt with and jitspoe will remove it as it really serves no productive purpose.
-
Jitspoe: Is there any way to check who + or - you?
-
I don't think you should be able to tell who rated you, but it would be really nice to be able to see which posts you were rated on. You know, so that you can tell when people do or don't like how your acting.
Maybe even at the header of each post, a little counter of how many +s and -s that post has gotten.

That would be neat. But I agree on the anonymous rating. That could wreak havoc otherwise.

Unfortunately it doesn't store that informaiton. It's a pretty simple system. I would prefer a post-based system as well.
Anonymous votes help people be a little more honest. I could see the types of people prone to getting negative karma harrasing other users for giving it to them.

The karma system isn't objective at all. It reflects the views of the community. It's a shame people don't like you/how you post, but get used to it. There aren't many people at all with more + than -. :P
-
Well you seem to have a very well balanced karma as of this post eiii.
-
Cool. I'm loved! :D

Great no matter what my opinion is or how kind I state it, you call it a rant??? Pfft -1

I split these posts and merged them with the karma thread, since they really have nothing to do with moderators.
No offense, Picasso, but I wouldn't consider "waste of forum space", and "useless" the kindest way to express those opinions. Just for the sake of an example, if I said, "The graffiti paint servers are a useless waste of space on the serverlist", you probably wouldn't think too highly of that.
-
OMG whatever jitspoe... You asked for our opinion and my response was NOT intended to be "UNKIND" It's a simple fact and no less "kind" than your claiming that avatars are bad. I can't believe that you can't see the negativity that can stem from your little karma tool especially with all the problems you've had gaining control of this forum. I can't believe that you can't see how it has clearly already been abused.
What the hell GOOD do you expect to come from something like a karma tool.
Furthermore, you once again forget the fact that the GRaFFiTi servers DO serve a purpose. They support your freakin game.
I'm sorry you're offended but next time don't ask our phuckin opinion...
Now... there's your rant... I'm done with this poorly ran forum.
-
Some people are taking this way too seriously how bad could it be? And the game is not just Jitspoe's, its everyone that enjoys playing it, including myself, and hopefully you too. Jitspoe doesnt have to ask anyones permission or opinion for that matter. Its just two numbers next to your name why dont u ignore them? As new as I am to this forum, its obvious a majority of the users here dont mind it, and your making a personal issue because youve ticked some people off. Go ahead and -1 me everyone, all that matters is I know Im not abusing or flaming. PiCaSSo we all use GT and Im sure appreciate it.
-
Dude, I never said I didn't value (your) opinions, nor did I say I was offended. I was just calling you out on your claim that everything you've posted has been kind and friendly in nature. I simply used the graffiti servers as an example, using the same words you used in a previous post to make my point. The graffiti paint servers are actually some of the better ones on the list now, as they aren't running ub_cliff 24/7 or jump maps that aren't even made for paintball.
I'm just trying to help you become aware that you often come across with the same kind of negativity as the people you frequently criticize. I know you probably don't intend it, but it's still there, and it seems whenever I call you out on it, you completely flip out and quit.
-
this seems like a good idea. just kinda wondering how i got -2 when i have only made one post since comming back?
-

Because there are people on the forums that abuse the concept of the karma system.
-
Two different people gave you karma. It doesn't matter how many posts you've made.
-
i don't think people like me very much ;P
-
I don't think you should be able to tell who rated you, but it would be really nice to be able to see which posts you were rated on. You know, so that you can tell when people do or don't like how your acting.

I think that would be good, too! Kind of like pbreview, and the disputed posts can have comments. But that's why we have a forum... You get the idea. Is there anyway you could do that, jitspoe?
-
spydie i know you just -1'd me... don't lie
-
Err, comments on post? That's taking it a bit too far. It seems to me we'd get a lot of 'OMG WHY IS THIS -??' if comments on karma were encouraged.
-
Two different people gave you karma. It doesn't matter how many posts you've made.
i know it was that but im just more wondering why they have it to me.
-
Well, I'm -8, so don't feel bad. :P

Exactly the reason for putting the Karma thing on posts!
I'd be willing to take a shot at it, if someone else doesn't have the time.
-
Aw, picasso.
-
If you can't rate them due to the delay, can the buttons be hidden? I keep getting confused. :P
-
*Edit
"but it's still there, and it seems whenever I call you out on it"....Jitspoe? Call out? There are people who need this (cheaters, spoofers, greifers etc etc). He is not one of them, he is only trying to help in his own way. Someone said a time or two that a pm is the most effective means of communicating personal issues. I am actually surprised you felt that needed to be said in public. It only intensified your desired effect. LOL but look who is doing the logical thinking! NUff Said.
Can I watch you two kiss and make out up
Where is that Supermercado when you need him? Tee-Hee!
(on topic)
I would prefer a penis gage tool. For thickness, length, smell, longevity of erections and volume of sperm per orgasm. I would win.
-

-9 now. The problem with karma is, if people don't like you, they will give you a -. You may be posting very helpful posts and not flamming at all. Karma relates to the forum.. Does it not?
-
I still think its pointless to argue about it, if you don't like it being on the forum, just ignore it.
-
this is fun :)
-
it sure is lol
