I suspect that somebody (or some people) has recently set you as an enemy. That really blows your blobs away!
If you can persuade some of the people who don't hate you to set you as a friend the balance will be redressed. ____________________ Sod falling in love, I wanna fall in chocolate.  |

I noticed your blobs had turned to red just recently, so looked at your profile, and notice Bazza has had quite a Karma bashing session on you.
Infact, on looking at his profile, he only seems to give good karma to the females (he must have thought bonny rich was a female with bonny in the name )
ps, im sure he will give you a 'boring' rating for this effort too. |

I'm not entirely sure I grasp the karma system fully, but does giving out good karma have a positive effect on your own? If so, try giving some out to those you deem worthy it may come back to you.  ____________________ My claim to fame: Austin Vince nicked my pen... |

Most people do know the word 'Paki' originates from the word 'Pakistani', but they, and you, also know it's mainly used in a derogatory way and as such, its use is discouraged. ____________________ My other bike's a Monster...  |

How can this be allowed?

Most non racist way possible, maybe. But it is obviously 'racial' , anyway ignoring being predantic...
'Abusing' the ratings system is definitely not encouraged - if you see it, why not contact a mod, rather than complaining in Random banter that it shouldn't be allowed . If lots of incorrect ratings are given then revoked, they definitely do lose karma for it.
Note that I would consider positive karma just for the sake of boosting someone's karma an abuse of the system - maybe all those people did find your post 'insightful and informative', but that doesn't seem that likely - however definitely nothing will be done about that
.
Anyway, I did look at your profile, but the offending ratings are now not displayed, so haven't looked any further.
Having a couple of gold blobs, I can assure you it's over-rated.
My own thoughts on the actual subject...
As Paivi suggests - everyone know that it's used in derogatory way. Personally I wouldn't really have a problem with the word 'paki', 'nigger' or similar in the same way as 'pommy' is used by Australians against brits, often in a slightly-derogatory way.
However, the fact is that for me, I'd say 99% of the time I hear it, the person saying it has no idea where the person they are talking about is from and is referring to someone with a certain skin colour, usually with a derogatory suggestion. |
