What must we do to gain back our karma?

[jarmo]

That's not very nice, jarmo.?

It's the truth.

Try going out and licking a lamp post in the middle of winter when it's a really cold day.

When your tongue sticks to it and you eventually makes your way away from the lamp post, will you try it again?

When I "makes" [sic] my way back from the lamp post I probably wouldn't try it again, because I'd be kind of cold and probably want some coffee first to warm my tongue.

And just FYI the reason I got a negative karma last time was because I was actually trying to help get a topic back on track, but by telling Jim Bob to stop arguing with Bono I got smacked for being off-topic myself. It wasn't intentional and I've been careful to let it up to moderators since. So your cute lamp-post analogy really doesn't work since I haven't gotten negative karma twice for the same thing, have I?

That's like hitting a deer on a road at night and then running over a person two days later on your way to Kansas in the middle of daytime. You wouldn't say to the driver, "Hey, you shoulda known better than to be driving around here, didn't you learn anything from the deer accident two days ago?"

In which case the driver might find it odd that a state trooper in Kansas knows his history of his hitting a deer two days ago in another region of the country, but oh well.

Maybe some people just shouldn't drive in which case I won't post anymore.

I take back the last sentence.

I can't resist the temptation any longer. (It's been thirty seconds and counting.)

But I will be more careful with my posts.

If you break the rules once, maybe you should make sure you read and understand them before you post again.


Thanks for correcting my typo.

i honestly wish jarmo would just ban both of you (russian roulette and frozen inferno).

[ssiscool]

is the karma like a warn system?

Yes.

[nonlinear]

hehe, and it seems like you have to be really bad to get a negative karma point, cause i've done some bad things and i'm still karma free

Not really. It depends on what's happening I think. Like I said before, I got negative karma for calling someone "dumb" even though it was a joke and I said "No offense" right afterwards. (My exact words: "You're dumb. No offense.  ") Yet I've seen someone on here call another guy a "fucking fag" and he didn't even get his post deleted much less negative karma. Depends on what's going down, who's around, and what the mood is.

[Australian_Love]

hahaha this thread is too funny.

[BluesGNR]

Now that you mention it... any chance on getting rid of my negative karma?  I did updates for 2 of the concerts and I'm a contributing member of the board that just made a mistake one day...

I would sell my body to get back my karma.

Haha... well, if that is the going rate, maybe keeping it isn't the end of the world afterall.

Dont post the Rolling Stone article in another language ( no matter how funny you think it is) . It wont work and you'll lose a karma point.

That is pretty funny. Maybe the mods were just adding to the humor?

Well, I think your posts are simplistic and ignorant and most often it seems you never even read more than the first post because you either (a) ask a question that's already been addressed or (b) ask for a recap of what's going on or (c) bring up something that has already been discussed in the thread and then everybody has to tell you it's already been resolved or (d) you just write something completely wrong (such as when you implied I'm not a GN'R fan like you because I've only been registered a month, despite the fact that one's message board history shouldn't be an indication of their passion AND I've been on GN'R forums since 2003/2004, AND I originally registered on HTGTH in early '05).

Plus, your avatar is really annoying.

Of course, I'd never be so mean to anyone for no reason, but I'm sick of your hostility and - frankly - stupidity. If you don't like my posts, don't read 'em. Simple solution.

[NicoRourke]

Is there a limit for the negative karma thing ?

Like when you reach -5 you get banned ?

Otherwise what's the point ?

Depends. But my guess is you don't wanna know on what... I do think though that some people on this board will find out soon...

You know.. I have to say... RR seems to sound smarter after every post!

No sarcaism either. I like this guy!
