Karma?

[critical bill]

Perhaps I missed the memo on some changes to giving and receiving karma points. But...is there any reason I cannot give out negative karma for posts? I can receive them but I cannot give them. At this time I am only able to give good karma points for posts.

Thanks in advance for answers.....

You have a "Participant" level membership, which does not allow you to give out negative karma. You'd need to upgrade one level to "Contributor" to do that.

Well there must be a glitch in the system then because I received negative karma from a unpaid member last week?

Dunno Laura, I was just going by what the chart said. Maybe one of the site mods, or Rich, can clear that up?


Edit***

Hey Laura, was the little box thingy next to the comment grey or red? If it was red, then it was actual negative Karma that counted towards your points, if it was grey, while the comment may have been nasty, it was neutral and didn't count towards your point total.

Definitely red Erin.

I am thinking that maybe some of the "paid" members are not getting or have requested not to have the coin on?
I have seen paid participant (something to that effect)under their screen names on people who are using the ads but I do not always see coins.

Yes, theres an option to do that in the User CP i believe.... i was told how to do it, if one wanted to hide them. But i dont remember exactly how...

Definitely red Erin.

Thanks guys.

Another quick question for anyone with knowledge of the karna system, can you see who left you karma if you are at the contributor level membership?

 

[monkeywrench133]

Yes, you can at Contributor level.

 

[critical bill]

Yes, you can at Contributor level.

Thanks so much for the answer.

check your user cp Chuck, karma will be on the right side.

Coins do not show up to you make the required minimum posts.

 

[Dennis Hultman]

Which is ten.

User CP.
Scroll down to Group Memberships.
Choose setting.

No understanding of Karma

How do you leave Karma?? How do you gather friends? Thanks!

Until you've reached 100 posts and accumulated some karma to give out, any karma you leave will be a purely symbolic gesture that doesn't count toward your target's karma rating. Also, you'll only be able to leave positive karma, since you're not a paying member.

Anyway, check out the screenshots below to see how to give karma and send someone a friend request. For karma, just click on the little scale icon that I've outlined in red. To 'friend' someone, you'll need to click on their user name and enter their profile page via the drop-down menu that appears.

Is the a benefit to not showing the coin??

Sammy hasn't logged in for nearly 3 yrs.
About the only benefit I can think of is that, without the coins, posts take up a little less space
