This is what I don't understand. If someone gave me -ve karma, then shouldn't it show up on the bottom of the -ve karma list, since the lowest currently on it is -2/2? Or does it only show up if you've received more that one rating for that post?
@Spudman - ya, that goes without saying.

IPJ, I didn't quite get this bit
QUOTE
You'd think that if there's a +0 on the positive list and a -1 on the negative list that it wouldn't take much to get on it. Or are there just lots and lots of +0s and -1s and only one of each are actually making it to the list?
...or am I looking at a different list? All I see is a list summarising + and - for each user
EDIT maybe you're talking about the karma per post? which I've just seen
@ipj I assume its primarily ranked on karma balance for the post, and then sub ranked within that karma amount by the total votes. So I think theres one of mine there with a karma of 0, but theres 6 votes involved, obviously 3 positive and 3 negative. (Actually with a karma of 0 it shouldnt be in the list, so its a bad example)
But a post with 4 positive and 3 negative would appear above a post with 3 positive and 2 negative even though both have a balance of 1 because the former has more total votes.
Thats just a guess, it would be good to see the code.

Nah, I wouldn't -ve you for that. There's no point in that. Besides, I've only given out 3 in the last couple days (if I remember correctly).
I never think about it until I see the karma thread pop back to the top of the list.

People with negative karma shouldnt be able to vote
Hey, I am a person too. Just cause I have +100 karma and -105 karma doesn't make me less of an influence.
Of course, I am only guessing now that I can't see how many +/- points I actually have. The last time I checked (last week I think), I had over 100 votes total. I am proud to have had so many votes and like they say in Hollywood "No press is worse than negative press!".

I am not a big fan of green, I hate grey and red is better than pink. Someone negative karma me please so that I can get back into the red where I belong.

Jesus, what's up with all those categories. karma by nationality? vote count positive? vote count negative?

I don't know but clearly it is not Equal Opportunity Karma anymore

It is strange that some can give only +1 but it takes only one person to take you down by -5 for one post.

Karma. From the Sanskrit: deed, action that has consequences
1. (Hinduism & Buddhism) The total effect of a person's actions and conduct during the successive phases of the person's existence, regarded as determining the person's destiny.
2. (Direct) Fate; destiny.
3. (Informal) A distinctive aura, atmosphere, or feeling.
4. (Sin) Childish bollocks for the kids.
Now gimme loads of -karma (see button below). Like I fucking care.
I think theres a problem with the karma buttons, I just tried to negative karma something, and the dialog box said "positive karma given" and then if you look at what posts have gotten positive karma today, it isnt posts one would expect.

Hey I was not part of this game for a few days and saw few changes...
1. When I left, I was at no. 3, now am at 147...

I don't how but all my positive karmas are equalled by negative karmas...

2. One can
opt out. But I want to know, if I opt out, can there be a possibility to rejoin the same? If yes, then what will happen to existing ratings? If no, there should be option available for the same.
Anybody to answer??
Enjoy!!!

Whatcha mean? You opt out on your current stats and then rejoin when it puts you at a better position. I've been looking at the ratings and my Karma goes up and down more often than XXXXXXX's pants. Does it really bother you that much?

Do you think it would be possible to separate the karma buttons a little more or make them different colours or something? I'm sure I'm not the only one who has hit the wrong karma by mistake.
