Reminder to Everyone -- Drive by Reds are Abuse of the Karma System

hopefully was not me giving a few greens

An additional reminder is that to call out another member in a red is also considered abusive, and potential grounds for removal.

I agree. Remove anonymity for both red and green karma

I love you op and love that they chose a woman to deliver this message lol I agree with you babe like alwyas

We are referring to reds, not greens.

Agreed.
constructive critizism is a good thing. If they hate me it is because I am doing something right. Truth is being attacked everywhere.

Lotsa haters uh?

My post vanished again.

You called out someone in your post.

Don't do that.

lol, no kidding.

This place is like a girls high school clique lately.
Between karma, having the "ignore" option, banned words, etc... glp has become more of a safe space than a conspiracy forum.
If I dont agree with you, or if you rub me the wrong way I give red, then ignore, and ban from thread,lol
what the actual fuck?
Fix this shit.
Go back to before we even had flags before our id's.

Nice one LJS!

This is why I think Karma should have the person that left it Good/Bad. Either way no "incognito".

Just letting everyone know I haven't given red nor green.My phone won't let me.Maybe a java thing.When I tried to green it just keeps taking me back to the top of the page like I hit refresh or something.Enough about that what I mean to say is I wouldn't give red anyway..I would just say how I felt in a thread post.
I HAVE wanted to give many people green but can't.
I sure have sent out a few green mentally though.Like a tiny appreciative quick hug : )
Mental Drive By is all I got for now and always with kindness.
I haven't been 'conditioned' at this site to run hit red like a coward and vanish, but that if I got something to say,to just fucking say it regardless.Whatever happens after that happens.
I'm no backstabber here and I damn sure don't desire that to happen to me either.
Shit happens though.
I can feel it

LOL

I love when I get a red that doesn’t make sense ... and see others got it too at the same time.

I admit I deserve red when I say or do something wrong. :)

I stood up for equal rights for gays - someone hit me with being a gay lover.

Unfortunately I didn’t see who gave it - or I would provide them the nuance between supporting equal rights to all that is in the constitution and personally disliking behavior of some.

Same, not about Q & Antifa, but I got 4 or 5 in a row since AC's became non-existent. It's like the AC's have teamed up to issue reds to one person. I get it if someone doesn't like me and red's me every now and then. I'm not perfect and sometimes I'm bitchy, so I understand it. But I have received more red since no more AC's (a few months) than I have the entire time I've been on GLP. Except that one time I kicked my daughter out a few yrs ago and everyone thought I was horrid. By the way, she turned out okay and she realized she CAN fly on her own.

I believe the entire point is that if you disagree with someone you need to back up your assertion with research and evidence and carry on an adult discussion not fling poo like an anonymous monkey by a red Karma.

Pretty simple and I'll give an example: last week someone posted a thread about ancient civilizations not seeing the color blue. I saw immediate BS Flags posted on his thread and red Karma given to the individual. I took an hour and 20 minutes to research the topic myself and then backed up why he was correct.

The whole point of this being a conspiracy forum is you do research and refute another's topic: argue the topic, defend your point, don't defame the poster.

Hate and love are one of the same. Sometimes hate is the truth. 2 sides of the same coin

Seriously, some of y'all need to grow the fuck up and the rest of y'all need to grow thicker skins.

This isn't a schoolyard playground so quit treating it as such.

Remove the karma system or implement signed karma. Simple fix.

Would fix both the drive-bys and the karma farming whores.

No problem, Sis, I appreciate the back-up.

That's how I feel about the whole system! I don't give a single fuck.

Do you give them the power?

Schizo just like the Karma system lol

I say whatever I need to say in the thread. I can't say that about some of the people here!

Not that my opinion matters, but (since that is the point of GLP :)

1. Show usernames of those who hand out Red Karma
2. Lower the cost of green Karma to offset a red (you could probably run a report, but I would venture a guess - reds are handed out at a far greater rate than 1 red for every 10 green)

But what if they really deserve the bad karma?

Can't believe you got a red Karma for liking rap.

I love you LJ and read an article done in BBC on Mods and the kind of abuse they have to see and that it takes a special person to be one , our Mods are special and we thank you all for what you do. We love you all

I’m usually a green girl. :)
