Hi, I was just wondering what this karma thing is underneath our avatars. And what do the two different options do too?
Thanks!

I don't know what it is, but I know the exalt button makes the persons karma go up by one point.

Just a way of saying people think highly of you. Or lowly of you. Smite takes a point a way...
So if someone thinks you made agood post or are appreciative they do that to show that your a good person.
On some forums, it's easier to see your posts if you have good karma and harder if you don't, and on others if you have really bad karma your at risk of being banned.

As am I. Especially since it seems I have almost as many awesomeness points saved up as Calico-chan herself.

Perhaps because you are just that awesome, Nash. I know I have some from who-knows-where. I wish we could see who's giving us karma....

It is possible that some of it may be related to message board activity and is an automated process. ^_^
But I honestly have largely no idea how it all works on this board. D: Just the concept in general, it's just on a few forums and archives I go to.
I do know that if you give someone karma you have to wait a while before you can do so again....

Karma's given to you by other people. As far as I know, it's not an activity thing...but that's as far as I know. XD And I didn't know about the waiting thing. Can you tell I don't give out karma often? =D

I've given out a few. As far as I can tell, it's entirely member-based, and not related to board activity.
And I kind of like the anonymity, actually. Though still I wonder what I could have done to earn half a dozen virtual thumbs-up in such a short span of time...

Ah I see.. so can you have negative points? That would be bad. I just wonder because I've got a couple of Karma points too.
yea, you've got quite a few Nash!

>.> Its not automated, and on some boards you can see who gave it and they enter a reason to give you karma.
