LOL, I'm honestly surprised at how seriously this whole karma thing is taken!
But I've checked the rules about it, and I don't think I've done much wrong. The ability to give or take karma I can live without but I'm not happy with the accusation that I have given out karma for no reason! I can explain every negative karma I have given out.
Is the problem with the amount?? There have been very few posts over the last week or so that I've enjoyed reading enough to give a positive karma. The vast majority have been yet again another thread on whether bl***y emily is a racist or not, or why is it ok for a black girl to say it but not a white girl. Countless threads on the same subject and then some pratt comes and starts yet another thread "OMG heres teh raesons I so strongy feel that emily is/isn't a racist, I just luv/hate her so mcuh!!!" And then that degrades into a exact copy of every other thread on the same subject. Damn, if I could have I'd have given out more! Thing kept telling me I had to wait longer! And then there other times I could go for ages without even thinking about karma.
Check your logs, look at the posts I gave negative karma for. Idiots starting new threads when there's already at least two on the exact same subject. Stupid posts that are just poor attempts at flaming someone, some pratt suggested I was racist for saying that charley spoke in an aggressive manner. Send me a list of all the posts I have given negative karma for, I'll explain them all.
With the two threads about karma that I posted in, firstly I was having a laugh with doc. Neither of us clearly take our karma scores particularly seriously and we were having a laugh with it. I suppose, on a strict reading of the rules, you could say we were working in a team which isn't allowed, but I think I gave 2 negative karma to him and they were about 2 days apart! Hardly much of a team member!! And my bl***y karma kept going up despite all my best efforts to get it down!
And I have never given negative karma for spelling mistakes!! I was fascinated by how seriously this karma thing was being taken, especially in that thread, and I posted that to get a rise and try to highlight how ridiculous and random it is. People take negative karma off others cos they like a different housemate, that's just as pathetic a reason as doing it for spelling errors! But like I said, I've never given it for spelling errors. Check the posts I've given negative for, there were no major spelling crimes, it's the content that bothered me more. Again, I was having a bit of a joke. Before that post, I'd given out maybe 3 or 4 karma and two were positive (mrluvaluva and potentialsuperstar I think). After that, I had a feeling I'd be being watched so I made sure I could stand over every negative I gave and I even gave few positive!! There was even a couple of times when I tried to give more positive and it wouldn't let me!! (i think one was for one of sticks' posts)
I'm never going to take it all that seriously and you're probably better keeping me banned! If you gave it back to me, I can't guarantee I wouldn't use it in exactly the same way. Maybe if there wasn't all the emily c**p going on, there would be less pathetic posts that deserve negative karma, but there's no guarantee of that either.
I have no problem losing my karma privileges, but please send me the list of the posts I gave negative for. I'll give you a valid reason for every one of them.
