Title: The return of karma
Post by: MonkeyIsland on September 02, 2012, 09:57 PM
Karma is back, in a way! I can say just like the way it worked before except that it is disabled by default and if someone really wants to get bothered with it they gotta enable it themselves.

Since the majority of the community won't see karma stuff, please do not post content relating to it since it makes no sense to them.
I brought it back since you were all visiting a topic for karma. So for people who like to visit a topic about karma, they can enable it instead. Other members are safe aside.

Look into your profile 'Look and Layout' to enable karma.
Do you think you can pull enough drama with this again and I remove even user-based karma? Well let's find out :)

Hey MI, what about replace reputation with A/S. Its ratio between applauds and smites. Just like on shooters, when somebody ask try-out the most important is not amount of kills or deads but k/d ratio (kills/deads)
Not sure if it will work tho, but I like spamming with ideas, remember? ;D

Title: Re: The return of karma
Post by: Doubletime on September 05, 2012, 08:29 PM
I am not sure if i approve to this idea...Wouldn't it be better if instead of having people enable karma they simply " disabled " karma ? In that case people with well deserved low karma who choose to conceal it would still be punished as in everyone with an IQ over 80 sensing they were propably not that pleasant to have as an opponent ?

Oh well nonetheless i think that you should be rewarded for a step in the right direction MI so i will grant you 1 lightside point..

Karma is only an issue if you tie your self-esteem to a casual gaming website.

EDIT:  See below for example
Title: Re: The return of karma
Post by: Kaleu on September 06, 2012, 04:51 PM
Dunno why MI wants more fights and useless discussions about this shit feature in his website (if you can call this a feature for me its a defect), the sucess after removing karma was bigger(muting some FoShit also gave some peace to TUS), just remove it again, because even if you don't want, it will be used incorrect!

I can understand your position, especially since karma is the enemy of people that post inconsequential bullshit.
Title: Re: The return of karma
Post by: Doubletime on September 06, 2012, 05:29 PM
Komo if you don't want FoS to have power over your'e karma then how come you enabled it ? You are starting to look like a real villai n now...You have developed a hunger for attention that will grow even as you deny it !

But a true villain would bask in the power of the darkside and the hunger that feeds it...Not deny it and attempt to be heroic...Nonetheless such a hunger for attention will innevetible result in an increased affinity towards the darkside...

Komo has gained 1 darkside point

Post by: Kaleu on September 06, 2012, 05:31 PM
blablabla...because even if you don't want, it will be used incorrect!

The concept of karma is like an "like" of facebook, if someone like or dislike any post they press it, but people are smiting and applauding only for fun everyday everytime, arent them?

even if you don't want, it will be used incorrect!
I can understand your position, especially since karma is the enemy of people that post inconsequential bullshit.

I say the same for you.  :)

Okay, im going to turn over a new leaf.  I will applaud you every time I log on to tus.  That way your karma won't be so terrible, and people will actually think you have something halfway intelligent to say.  Prove them right.

@insan3kalp3r

that's why MI gave the option for all members, to decide if they want karma or not.
you don't want it ? just press the disable button !
why it will be used incorrect, if you have karma disabled and give a damn about it.
sorry man, i don't get your point. ;s

Why would I hide something that I know that is there?
He didnt gave the the option to disable it, only to hide it, what makes no sense if other can see and press it, if I disabled and noone could see and/or press, would be ok but this way is bullshit.

If it's for me, thanks aew villain !  ;)

because you don't want karma and that is the only way to avoid it for you now.

if you are not satisfied with this option, you obviously care too much for a feature, which you don't want anyway.
you shouldn't care so much for it, that others can still see your karma and applaud/smite you.

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

to be honest, don't say you have never ever smited people you don't like, without a reason.

live with it, not difficult. 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 !

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.
Title: Re: The return of karma
Post by: Alien on September 07, 2012, 08:21 AM
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.

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.

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.

Post by: darKz on November 05, 2012, 10:57 PM
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):
(https://dl.dropbox.com/u/30354443/example.png)

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. :D
