Or just scrap it altogether, a bunch of juvenile back slapping and 'screw yous' anyway. As long as it exists people will find ways to abuse it.

I don't give anybody red or green Karma and I don't really give a shit if anybody gives me red or green. I think the whole red green thing is kind of silly.

Thank you. I think the system may need to be scrapped in favor of something less prone to abuse.
 Quoting: Inquire Within



Obviously, the word "abuse" is totally subjective. I mean, isn't the whole PURPOSE of leaving karma (either way) to express your approval or disapproval?

And how does one define the term "drive by"?

If you are perusing a thread, decide to comment, and some shitbag attacks you out of nowhere, gives you red karma, and so you give your opinion of them in a red karma comment yourself, is that a "drive by"? Because that's about all I've ever done, when it comes to red karma.

I was wondering who deleted my 10 year old account today, and then immediately deleted my thread inquiring about it. And now I know.

 Quoting: The Patriot Mind


Suddenly changing karma comments to non-anonymous creates new problems. It just needs to be scrapped in favor of a new system or provide a way to report karma abuse as it occurs, like abusive posts on threads can be easily reported and then dealt with by mods. Need to be clearly defined karma comment rules that display when posting karma that if violated results in a strike. Enough strikes and account is closed.

totally agree..... I would imagine the red giver knows this and is a tactic also to make you not only feel bad and worthless but make you pay in Karma points to remove it.... all the while hiding in the shadows. Unbalanced and unfair....Not GLP ethos ;)

Applying the sender's ID to any karma opens it up to being just like commentary on news sites (Disqus?)...they only allow "upvotes"...so because your identified, most/all will only leave green.

I agree, some new way is needed, but by just labeling who leaves it with "dilute" the intended purpose.

Scrap and start new.

Would giving a red karma with no comment, just a period, be considered a drive by? That's really pointless. At least take the time to state why you're giving red.

I am not in the least bit amused about making this thread AGAIN.

Abusing the karma system is possible grounds for having your account closed.

That means using your account to hand out nothing but hateful reds, racist reds, calling out another member in the reds, drive by reds on a regular basis, posting a hateful green so the person cannot use their karma to remove it, opening sock accounts to give red, giving yourself greens from a sock account, signing another's name to reds,etc...

*raises hand*

What's a "call out" in relation to karma?

I always thought it was naming someone and attacking them personally, at least in reference to posts, but most red karma is essentially a personal attack, by nature.

What happens if you accidentally give a red when you fully intend a green and leave a very nice comment? You have to wait a week to apologize. I feel just awful that the person I meant to compliment thinks I was bashing him and he left a nasty comment in return. I still want to make it right but still have days to go before I can do that.
 Quoting: janedoenut


That happens. PM a Senior Mod, or an Admin and let us know you clicked the wrong thumb color. We can remove that one, and you can replace it with the green you intended.

I don't see many solutions...
Change karma to red or green only with no ability to leave a comment..or make a three strikes and no more comments with chance of permanent suspension.
