scd gets karma for sweet avatar

Random number generators decide if I toss a negative or positive karma at everyone who posts in this thread. It's a mother-fuckin' KARMA FIGHT!

You roll a 1. A dragon eats you.

It was a clever plan, but you overlooked its Achilles Heel: you cannot give or take karma from yourself.
-
No! He- he's right!

OHSHI
-
guys my karma is wicked
-
I was gonna give you karma for that, but I didn't want to ruin it.
-
Also, Det, right now your karma is the type of computer I had like 15 years ago.
-
Psh. I was stuck with a 486 until Christmas 1999.
-
Niku if you say something this stupid again I swear...
it's okay joxam we still lava you ;_; <3
I swear I'm going to give you a karma and ruin your 66/6.
-
Hey is there a button that lets us revoke karma privileges?
-
All things must come to an end Brentai. They should always end because I find something stupid impossibly funny.
EDIT:
For the slow kids: I giggled like a massive 'tard at niku's comment, but didn't want to ruin his karma thing.

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

That's okay, now you can aim for lucky 7's.

this was my greatest plan ever

ENVY GOD DAMN IT
YOU MESSED IT ALL UP
-
people keep giving me positive karma and it's ruining my carefully constructed persona
-
God damn it, Envy. At least spell things right when you are de-karmaing me.
-
I just looked at that negative and I don't even get why you were dinged for that post. I didn't think you were being an asshole and it was me you were talking about!
-
Oh it's just Envy.
The spelling is what hurts me.
-
I don't even know how to give karma. I don't see any available options when I click on somebody's profile here, do I have to accrue a certain amount of posts before I'm able to hand it out or something? Dang, maybe I'm missing something terribly obvious! Either way, I feel bad because lots of folk's have been nice to me since my return and I owe them.
-
Tyrannical! / Fossilize 'em
-
Kayma, I assume I'm supposed to see those words on the karma screen or when on a user's profile? I only see two options when looking at a profile: "Who changed my karma" and "Whose karma have I changed". When I click on either it takes me to what's been changed or affected through karma but nothing there allowing for me to change others. Hmm... perhaps I just don't yet have the privilege of giving karma?
-
Look at a post, directly above the number of posts a poster has (in the profile snapshot next to each post) should be the words "Tyrannical!" and "Fossilize 'em" for karma and dekarma respectively. Just above that should be the karma ratio.
-
Hmm... took a example pic (while logged in of course) and it's not showing above a person's post count near their profile snapshot ... this is probably just my issue I'm guessing.

-
They don't show up for me, either. I'm guessing there's a minimum number of posts that must be reached before you can change people's karma.
-
Something about number of posts or time spent. It took me a while to get the ability to work with Karma, but I have it now.
-
Oh it's just Envy.
I read over Lottel's karma and what Envy dinged and
Can we just take away Envy's karma privileges?
And restrict his posting to once a day?
-
I may have accidentally banned him last night anyways, so.
-
Cut him some slack? A pissy dekarma is better than a pissy post. Has he done something worse than that I don't yet know about?
-
Speaking of being pissy about karma and shit, should I feel bad that my last 3 karmas have come from Guild for playing in his crazy games?
I- I feel like- like he knows it's all I have that gives me self-worth. He knows and is showing pity.
-
GOD FUCKING DAMMIT ZIIRO!
-
I am ruining your sense of self worth by devaluing it with pointless karma.
-
This is a game I could play, but I like to think I'm better than that.
Not that I am, I just like to think it.
-
Demonsprite why are you giving envy -karma like twice a week for old posts
-
Demonsprite: I Just Want To Find Him
Demonsprite: And
Demonsprite: At Least Wound Him Somewhat
Demonsprite: All Im Saying Is Basically
Demonsprite: Just
Demonsprite: Fuck That Guy
-
Shinra gave me a dekarma because I told him he's being saying stuff that sounds an awful lot like racist apologetics. Which is maybe deserved, because his (later) posts read like he's familiar with the concept of institutionalized racism and he's mostly misusing a few of my pet-peeve words. (e.g. using committed instead of convicted)
But his actual dekarma links to the one post where I tell him that I assume he's not racist or sexist.
Just? What? Why?
-
I gave you a dekarma because you tried to boil down my argument to 'Oh Shinra is just stupid', on at least three occasions in that thread.
Oh, also, you won't stop implying I'm a racist (after I asked you to in PM, no less!) because I have a more in-depth position on the topic of race in America than what I learned about understanding in tolerance in Elementary School.
My point is, your debate skills revolve around 'NEENER NEENER NEENER, I CAN'T HEAR YOU' and 'NUH-UH! THAT'S NOT TRUE BECAUSE :racist:'

I am not saying that you're just stupid. I am saying that you're saying stupid, ignorant things, and I want, very badly, for you to focus on saying smart, informed/informative things. I know you can do it, you did it in that thread!
I am not implying that you're racist, either.
because I have a more in-depth position on the topic of race in America than what I learned about understanding in tolerance in Elementary School.
Uh, Shinra? Let me explain this a little more clearly. That elementary school thing?
shit racists I have had to deal with as part of my elementary schooling have tried to peddle to me.
That line?
I'm talking about a teacher in a freakishly homogeneously white-and-monied suburban school explaining stuff about the evils and dangers of "political correctness" that I had to unlearn in high school and college. For about four years, maybe longer, I was being fed elitist and racist lines that are echoed in the word choices and some parts of your "in-depth position" on race.
For me, not being racist means taking an extra few seconds to consider how, not if, race is factoring in to my behavior and opinions.
Oh, you gave me a great line, thanks.
My point is, Shinra, your debate skills revolve around 'NEENER NEENER NEENER, I CAN'T HEAR YOU' and 'I WILL PROJECT MY INADEQUACIES ON TO YOU'
Seriously, the parts where I haven't been expressing my discomfort with your choice of words or calling you stupid for not understanding me have been "I'm not sure that's so because... I think instead that... but anyway, that's a tangent."
I am not trying to misrepresent what you're saying and I am trying to give you credit where you say something sound.
I assume that we're having trouble communicating because I need to try harder to understand you and make myself clear, because you have sometimes given me credit when I say something sound.
But I am having difficulty taking it on faith that we're meeting each other halfway in terms of effort being taken to communicate.

Keep it in recreational murders

As obnoxious as it is, I think it's a better fit for High-Context Discourse, or the Guild Hall myself.
