Technically no, but it did make me mad when my karma went down to two... so... yeah, to avoid being hypocritical I said yes. -------------------- And though the musicians would die, the music would live on in the imaginations of all who heard it. -The Last Pendragon TEH CONSPIRACY IZ ALL Les forum de la chance.

I don't think it matters. I don't like being unable to edit karma ratings I've given, and this makes me very reluctant to give ratings. As an example, there's someone I thought was a total idiot and was itching to rate with a 1, but I didn't. A few weeks later I realised that person wasn't a total idiot, and was glad I hadn't given them a permanent downgrading of their karma based on a negative first impression. The only rating I give is a 5, and people really have to earn it before I'll give it. I believe that way I probably won't change my mind and later regret the karma rating I gave them. I figure that if I'm not rating many people and am keeping my opinions to myself, then a lot of other people are probably doing the same. I believe karma isn't a valid reflection of the opinion of the Spiderweb community. It's the opinion of a few people that you've either really irritated or really impressed. -------------------- We meet and part now over all the world; we, the lost company, take hands together in the night, forget the night in our brief happiness, silently. -- Judith Wright My website Posts: 512 | Registered: Wednesday, February 12 2003 08:00 |

Yes, being able to change your ratings of others would be nice. That way, you could change your rating from good to bad or bad to good, anytime(my opinions of people fluctuate all the time). On a side note, who has the most votes? I have 23, which I'm assuming isn't a whole lot. -------------------- Polaris Posts: 1614 | Registered: Wednesday, January 23 2002 08:00 |

I leave my karma off and only rate others when they ask to be rated. Or when I am in on a conspiracy. Posts: 3234 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

What people actually say on the boards is a finer instrument than karma, but if someone is particularly helpful, amusing or likeable (or not), then karma is an indicator of sorts. Why I have **** then, I really don't know. Posts: 2333 | Registered: Monday, January 7 2002 08:00 |

I most likely have the most votes. I believe I've been at the effective maximum whenever there was one. This has been asked and answered. No one who's been here longer than two weeks considers karma anything important. And pointless polls make the baby Vogel cry.  See?

Alec, I beat you in number of karma votes by almost 50%. Yes, I'm special! —Alorael, who would say just about everything makes the baby Vogel cry if you judge by Irony Central. Especially when it's inconvenient for Mom and Dad. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

Karma defenintly does not matter. I mean, yeah, it's kind of fun to judge other people once in a while. But other than that, it's just not worth one's time (especially when you've got internet connection of 56k!). -------------------- # Two - deceaced I don't like this website How can FB like this?!

I have 110 votes, compared to 153 for Alorael and 102 for Alec. Hoorj.

I don't think it matters much… I don't look at how many karma I have. But I must know the reason. My karma always goes lower and lower, while I don't flame, spam or anything.
