Well after this thread and all the other similar ones, what do you think of the karma system and if you had the final say in it would it stay or not?
I reckon it should stay for reasons given in the above thread.
Oh yeah just before anyone gets ideas, this poll is not to decide if it stays or not it is just out of interest. |

It's an unusual feature that sets this site apart from others.
Gives me no hassle, and I always say what I think.

Bit of a fence sitter, but I suppose in the end I'd prefer if a human being looked after things a bit more closely. Yeah, even you Ste. |

At first there was no karma system, the forum worked, people got banned when abusive (although i managed to escape it ), then there was the simple karma system that relied on people giving out karma to people which worked save for the fact a few people were bouncing the stuff back and forth, then the new karma system came in and well, it got a bit crap.
I know people refrain from posting stuff because of a stupid system that is meaningless (I bet lot's of funny stuff is missed off because people are afraid to lose imaginary colour blobs from an internet site . I was going to write this i txt talk wivout ne gramar but got bored thinking of how to write in text talk . ____________________ [00:42] <NSR-Andy> which one's the missionary position

I am/have been an active member of many other forums, all without the karma system, so it's not actually needed. It does, however, reduce the amount of spam/txt talk without the need for a moderator, so in that respect I like it. It also helps stop the "me too" posts - all you have to do is agree with a post. The only part that annoys me is when a negatively rated post isn't backed up with a reason - if someone disagrees with what I have posted, then they should back it up with a why. That's not a fault with the karma system though, IMHO. ____________________ Current: CB500 Previous: CB100N, CB250RS, XJ900F, GT550, GPZ750R/1000RX, AJS M16, R100RT, Enfield Bullet

Really couldn't give a toss. I dont have a huge amount of karma compared to some (not forgetting I've been a member of this forum since the start).
I'm not obsesed with my karma, and if you look at most of my post's they are short. I swear, I rarely rate posts and in general I ignore the karma system.
It leaves me alone and I leave it alone. ____________________ The BCF's very own Party boy! Though he's getting old and feeling it!

It doesnt bother me the slightest.
Its here to keep order and make the forum a more user friendly place (In theory.)
Wouldnt be bothered if the system never existed, after all, we come on forums to communicate with others, by sharing opinions, advice and information.
Obviously, if people are being penalised for expressing opinions, then that is a problem, but otherwise, nothing wrong with the system.

As a moderator on other forums I can see this being a fantastic help for the Moderators on this site. They can actually contribute to the forum instead of having to troll through threads, locking them etc.
You don't see any of the mods or Korn posting something like "Can we please get back on topic please" or "We cannot tolerate that sort of language on this forum". Instead YOU and ME the members of this forum moderate itself by rating posts as we see fit, that way there are no conflicts between members and everyone is happy. ____________________ Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it?s worth. |

It's good fun rating posts as "Boring" or "Abusive" but this friends bollocks is a bit of a nonsense. ____________________ Northern Irish? www.nibikers.com |

The friends bit I'd say is one of the most useful parts of it. It means that you're able to have your contact details available to to those you want to be able to see them. Have a read of this post about the friends system. It's a sensible function really. |
