The return of karma

[avirex]

lol... i was waiting for komo to post here not for any reason at all (such as having easier access to the smite button) i swear...

[Kaleu]

if you had a good karma... you wouldn't write like now and even wouldn't care about that people can abuse karma

If there were a line that everyone who smite me write a good reason, would be alright, karma this way would be awesome, but only for fun? no comments.

live with it, not difficult. lol

Rly? lol;

You should be carefull Avirex..Do you not see his lust, his hunger for attention ? By giving him what he craves you are feeding his power and making him more powerfull...In order to defeat this darkside abomination we must give him no attention whatsoever ! That will drain his power untill we can strike him down with the full power of the darkside and have our reign of terror unchecked !

[TheKomodo]

if you had a good karma... you wouldn't write like now and even wouldn't care about that people can abuse karma.

I disagree, I understand that others feel victimised and bullied when certain people group up and abuse it and I don't like that, it should be stopped, period.

Edit:

For example, I don't have it enabled, but certain people (knowing they will eventually think of it, because they aren't exactly stupid) can,(kinda already have) and probably will take screenshots and post them.

[Alien]

who f@#!ing cares about that, seriously ?
it's just an useless feature for you guys, so just hide/ignore it. ffs lol
even if someone will post a screenshot, where is the problem ? lmao
if you want a good karma system, go to FoS karma topic.

It's just freaking #s, they can't really drive you insane, can they? :O

You haven't seen the movie Pi, have you?

[Anubis]

Oh noes, cyber people laugh behind my back. My life is ruined. GG all, climbing tree in garden as you read this. Farewell cruel world.
Btw, I enabled it too, I find it funny that some people really get too intense with this little feature. It's just freaking #s, they can't really drive you insane, can they? :O

You totally missed the point, caring or not is irrelevant, the fact they can do it is the bad thing.

They don't need Karma points to talk or laugh behind other people back. The Karma system is not glued to bad behavior, it's like saying private forums give bad people the opportunity to bully other people and thus shouldn't be allowed.

[zippeurfou]

What about being able to see for what post you had a like or dislike ?

[Wojtes]

It is the best way as it is  --- disabled.

[van]

Yeah, it's usually a pretty obvious choice to have something disabled when your smite to applaud ratio is THE lowest on this site. 0/-40 lmao.

I have a suggestion: Instead of having this current Karma system, wouldn't it be enough to just be able to +1 posts? I've seen this work very nicely and without any hate or flame on a DotA forum (community is known for a lot of hate/flame). Guess it would also work here.

Random example (bottom right of the post):


The lack of a -1 (or thumbs down) button is why it works so well. It's basically what Google+ tried to do in a bigger fashion.

[Prankster]

Basically Google+? Apple gonna sue us!

[philie]

but we love the -1s 

[TheWalrus]

There would be no such thing as positivity without negativity. 

[darKz]

Why did I even bother, I knew I would get this kind of response.
