I'm new here - been reading a couple of months & just got around to joining - I totally don't get the Karma Points thing - What are they? - How do you get them, or lose them?
I've only made a few posts - I some how had 1 point early this am, and now it's gone -
can someone please explain??? TIA

The Karma points are a meaningless feature of the software we use. Their only purpose is entertainment. ;D
You receive or lose Karma points when other members applaud or smite you. When you hit 10 posts the applaud/smite buttons will appear below the Karma ratings and you'll be able to give other members Karma.
Interesting -
So I guess that means - someone "applauded" me -
and then someone else "smited" me -
Why I'd have either one from the posts I've made is anyone's guess.........
So Personal Ratings based on the whims on other posters???
Hilarious!!
I gave you your first positive Karma point to welcome you to TT.
Since some slimeball nastily smited you, I just shot you back another one. Hopefully it'll stick!
Edit: Guess not. >
Some turkey's got their finger on the smite button this morning...
Thanx Stardust!! -
yeah, don't know what could have warranted a smite, whatever........
I'm still "getting the feel" of things here -
thanks for shootin me another point!!
I enjoy smiting people hiding behind a posting id. Particularly when I know exactly who they are.
Don't particularly like being stalked either.
Silverhead (Something about your name just doesn't do you justice),
I gave you a "welcome" applaud also. Maybe jealous brunettes are smiting you.

Anita, the pic is one of the avatars.
She is being smited because she is stalking me.
Gee, I sign up & make up a posting name, like thousands of others (silverhead, has a meaning to me) - I made no attempt to hide my identity -
Last Post - sorry if you feel "stalked" - I will refrain from having anything to say about any of your posts as much as possible
I just meant... when I think "silverhead," I think of a person with gray hair... like Leonard and myself.
