Hankers wonders what a "woutl" is 

She can see fine thank you very much! Just because there's not much to see in her very special padded room doesn't make one blind. 


{And to think she liked you.  }

I guess ya don't have to beg when someone just gives ya 10,000 karmas.  That sure goes a long way into making the system legit.  Oh well........

How can a system that allows an unlimited amount of points given for any reason at all be illegitimate?

I've posted a number of places where *I* think the system could be improved to give it purpose and prevent abuse . . . I can only wait and hope.

As far as my points go . . other than the humor and the thanks n the comments, it matters not to me.  A few, a thousand, a negative  . . I'd still do the same thing in teh forums I always do.

I think too many people are reading too much into karma

Yeah definately. WOM, I was just having some fun with Zubaz. I have some medication for you...

  

Karma is a force of life. You do good, promote & intend good, you usually get good back & then some.
If you do the opposite, you'll get the opposite. Karma itself doesn't bring out the worst in people, karma is the manifestation of life based on what people bring out of themselves.

Seriously, I think we're all getting worked up over a non-issue. An on-line karma points system.

People are asking how to get karma points on this site, simple answer, do unto others what you would want done to you. Hang out in the forums when you can, if you see a chance to answer someone's question or assist in another way, go for it, that's good karma, points or no points and if you get karma points for your user account, great!!! But if you don't, no worries, feel good because you've helped someone - that's what is important and that good feeling you get... that's karma. 1 point or 10000 points, it's all good!   

I'm not really sure where that all came from... Karma is definately not going to be used to purchase anything. It's just for there.

If that be the case,anyone who needs them may have mine.It's just a number.

Good enough for me.

Me too! hum...



seems there was something said to some effect... oh well then so be it
the idea has been dissolved?

Am I overreacting by not being happy about this article. A few days ago... I posted an article thinking that people around somewhat knew me. It was a kinda of "hey look at me I'm here and I've helping people, but no one has given me Karma." It somehow got turned into a moral debate over how "evil" it was and I'm being told to NEVER do it again and such. This hurts me, because I have been a member of this community for a long time, and I mean no disrespect because not all of you know how this got started, and are merely commenting, on the morality of asking for Karma. No I don't think you should be begging for Karma, but if you start a blog in good faith, and in good taste, with a group of people you believe to unbiased should you have be Crucified for it?

I mean no disrespect to anyone, please let me know what you think, understand I meant no harm to anyone, even those that in the end were rude to me, and even disrespected me.

Please let me know if my feelings are unwarranted, the original article was meant to be in good taste, and I'm sorry that it offended a few of you.
