Apperently not by posting.
According to most admins your not supposta have sage status until you earn it? how do we earn it?
If we post usfull info? NOT no one rates anyone up anymore that they don't know so that idea is out the window.
I've answered lots of questions and corrected mistakes i've seen on this site and get rated down for it. how does one get positive flow back without being yelled at on this site?
is there such a thing?
everyone on the Main forum is afraid to come here cause they said some ppl here always flame others and rate them down.
so to break it all down What does karma really mean anyways?
Treating others well and nice? nope
Giving usefull information? nope
Making someone laugh? nope
Number of post the individual has? wait i think thats it.
It seems that when a person has 38 post and is a sage ppl complain about it but if that person has over 2000 post nothing is said.
It must be the post count.
that being said then why is it some ppl complain about a person with 1500 post getting sage?
hmmmm. I just don't know anymore.
What's all your thoughts on it what should a person do to EARN karma?

Make me laugh, Pallier. Don't take personal offense at the **** leakage that tends to fill most of our threads here after the first page. Don't act like some sh1thead troll. Try and post something other than Who's the best actor in the worst movie. Mostly, make me laugh. That'll get you rated. Up or down, you never can tell. But you have to post something for me to evaluate you.

Haha, and trunks brando is soooo respected here. You know they even have several threads dedicated (see the many "Trunksbrando is a piece of smegma" threads they are quite funny.) to him.


My reccomendation, if you are worried about about Karma, dont post here. I haven't had any problems with having my Karma lowered, but it hasnt been raised either.


If numbers on a screen are that big a deal, then dont risk it. Go else where ,the carebears run free and rate everyone up!


By the by, I'm not dissing care bears. I am a care bear myself.

You never claimed you had karma here, or that people liked you, yet you are dispensing information on how the Karma here works?...


Honestly if you really knew how it worked, I think youd be liked here just a little bit more.

I was told by an admin that lots of ppl on this forum complains about karma thats why I ask here.
It was a lagit question not to rant or anything.
What does karma mean to you?
How do you think a person should earn it?

Cause if its make you laugh that is the answer for you remember what makes you laugh pisses off 10 other ppl so you may rate the person that made you laugh up while 10 others rate him down.

Is there a real way to make Sage or Guru?
I haven't seen it.
Tell me how do you think a person should become a Sage or a Guru.

Karma here is different than karma other places, as far as I can tell, but I will etll you what I think of Karma I guess.

I rate people up or down on how I feel when I read it. If the post is a racist post about how everyone non white should die, I'm gonna rate it down, but if someone makes a thread that is informative, helpful, or cheers people up, then I will generally rate it up.

That simple.

Oh sure, because there's SO MANY threads about white people being the vitims of racism.

You cracka *** craka.

Actually I've never encountered much racism on this website, I was just using it as an example. Personally, racism usually doesnt bother me, because I am a minority, and used to racism.


If you really are desperate enough to make fun of a trivial part of my post, then I worry for this board.

Agism, sexism, jingoism, socialism, conservativism, bestiality and scatology yes. But no f'ucking racists here.

i meant to a extent, yeah sure we all make racial, sexism, socialism, etc... but im not saying if you find out someone is black dont call them a f*cking n*gger and be racist to them the whole time, thats the kinda stuff we dont tolerate, right?

OP, learn how to make sentences and paragraphs, use "people" instead of ppl, then we'll talk about Karma.

Of course trunks is respected around here, during the past week or so he's been the hotest topic on the forum. Not everybody gets that kind of attention, especially from Totem. He pokes fun because he cares.

I think over half my posts have been in OoT and i have recieved maybe 10 ratings up or down.

Just post good helpfull things on your games forum, but do not ever ever correct someone, that just get all **** and rate you down.

Either that or do what all the Guru's do <bar maybe 2-3> make a sock puppet.

This is how I got to where I am, of course I seem to be slipping a bit now that I started coming here. On the EQ side of things Herk was a gold mine for me, I would get to give him the same helpful advice like 3 or 4 times, and he still wouldn't really get the point.

When you say "most admins" are you talking about Allakhazam, Danalog, Haggan, Darkflame, and Illia or are you just referring to the problem you seem to specifically have with me? Cause it makes much more sense if you just come out and say that it's me that's "************** about karma, even though I'm not.

I do grow pretty-wetty flowers for people like you to shove up your ***. Would you like the recipe for Carnations or Amaryllis?
