Unread post by Spike » December 11th, 2007, 11:06 am

Wow, check out the "post a new topic" tools! That's great Moose!

Some of these guys could use spell check too :lol:

What's 'karma' mean. I know what karma sutra is and what 'karma' means in Hinduism; what's it mean in G838 posts?? Located below the 'joined:' and 'posts:.'

In G838 lingo" karma" means: I was a great guy until I bought a M151, now I spend countless hours on the net, spend all my paycheck on green parts, have developed an allergy to canvas , have no dough for food , and the only joy I get is selling empty beer cans just so I can buy smokes... :shock: :shock: :? :? :roll: :roll:

[font=Verdana] [/font]"Karma lets you give a person positive karma points for doing something good, like telling you how to fix that aggravating little glitch in your jeep. It also allows you to give negative karma if someone pisses you off... That showed up as part of the hack I installed to enhance the message boxes... Its not tied into anything right now, but I think it might have a couple uses....

So I will try this again, how do I leave karma points for somebody else???

Neat system, 2 people have spoken out against this site, Fil, and Me, and we both get negative Karma for voicing our opinions.... Great system, guess you should only say what people want to hear on this site or else!!!!

I think I'll look intp disabling the karma thing, it serves no real purpose, but I see it could have a negative effect on people, and that is not something I want.... Anyone's opinion is welcome here, whether or not I agree with it. I do not want to suppress that.
