Karma
« on: April 21, 2007, 04:23:30 PM »
Because of the confusion and abuse of the karma feature it has been disabled. In the future if a better solution for karma is found it will be re-enabled. However, for now I think it's best and many other forum users agree that it be disabled.

Most likely never, I don't believe with the current system that something like this is trackable.

Does it not show in the admin security log then?
It did on my old forum.
Good that it's disabled anyway, it is open to abuse but it did seem to be working well for a while.

    Oh, Raptor, I'm only teasing.  *muah*

    Personally, I didn't really like the karma.  I think people took it a bit too seriously.  Or not serious enough.  Either way, we're probably not ready for it yet.

            She's a character from a promotional online A.I. (the movie) game (known as The Beast) I played a few years back.  She was a friend of the murder victim Evan Chan.

              No, I did ask him that, as I wasn't aware of him as part of my clan.  I was wondering if he was part of another DB clan, which would have caused problems.
              Apparently his name was from some cards or something.
              Look in the explain your username thread, he explained it there.

                Which one, hypothetical, or rhetorical?

                BTW, the proper term for young Jedi is padawan (unless you are a fully acomplished Jedi, but you are only young...).

                Thanks for letting us know.  I would've been wondering about that all day long if you hadn't told us.
