Hm, I've gone from 🟡🟡 to 🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢 over the course of a month or so, for some reason. Looking at my profile, and the FAQ, I can't fathom why.

Interesting, but seems quite illogical. Why? Is it Brexit? Is it Covid-19? I've only had one "Boring" recently, in response to some bloke who doesn't seem to appreciate an intended-humourous remark. So what is it? Just wondering...

It knows if you ad-block.

Thinking

Have you tried taking your temperature rectally?

You're right on the edge between five solid green blobs and one full gold blob.

If you stop doing things like posting in the wrong section then your karma won't take unnecessary hits. Razz

Do I really consistently post things in the wrong section? Do I do it more than others?

Oh arr. I see. I s'pose I'll have to whitelist it (assuming it is clever enough to know about that). I will give it a go, but ICBA, really. In time, would I go red/black/banned?

Edit: AdBlock Plus already had "show acceptable ads". uBlock Origin fixed. AdGuard inactive. Privacy Badger removed.

Hey! Hang on, I've used Adblock & uBlock for ages...

Don't think so, it was only mentioned because this thread belongs in the feedback forum. Razz

Light mode is a good way of doing away with some of the ads: https://www.bikechatforums.com/index.php?reskin=lite

The karma system doesn't ban people. Razz

Oh, OK, didn't realise since it was a question not feedback. I don't suppose feedback of "This bliddy thing does my carma 'cos I've got adblock" would be viewed well. Now I'm getting ads for buying bikes I won't buy, and girls I probably don't afford to buy. Ugh!

Still, whether or not the calmer was borderline green/yellow, it's now 🟡o. Could be coinkydence.

Well, in my case it's a minimum of one of: Adblock Plus; uBlock Origin; AdGuard; Privacy Badger.

I've had ABP for ages, so perhaps it's not that. Now I'm 🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢 again. Shrug.

It's quite hot on grammar and spelling too. It hates txt spk M8.

Not a criticicm of something I've noticed you doing, just a general observation because my typing is abysmal but I still seem to get on ok.

It also likes longer posts.

Posting in motorcycle related sections is genrerally a good thing.

I hope it doesn't prefer American spelling!

You seem to have typed some random characters there, but I do see your point about M8: that's generally coarse.

Oh God, do get over it.

I rarely post in any of the higher-point-scoring sub-forums, mainly sticking to inanities in Random Banter - when I do post in General Bike Chat (more betterer karma), it's usually also inane, and I still manage to hover halfway between one and a half gold without feeling I have to be a needy cunt about it.

And I swear like a trooper. Laughing

At least I don't use text speak very much, innit fam.

I am looking at your karma bar thing, I see a solid gold blob and one empty one. Maybe something to do with cookies or the fact that this website needs technical support?

I will give you some good karma now and see if it makes a difference?

Why do you think he's on 3.5 gold?


Probably be on 5 if he didn't resport to caps for EMPHASIS so often.

Perhaps if you read my OP instead of putting your own inaccurate ideas into it, you'd have a better understanding.

OK, great, I see that. It's still 🟡o. I reckon doggone is right, and uBlock Origin or Adguard or Privacy Badger was to blame. I'll switch these on again at some convenient stage & see what happens.

Yeah I did.
Because why else would i have given you a positive karma for that post.
Rolling Eyes

It's just not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things.
I don't need a better understanding of it because I don't really care.

I'm not a vindictive down-rater of posts, never have been, generally tend to just stick with ignoring them than negging them anyway.

Karma only becomes an issue when you haven't got much of it left.
In a week or so you will be back up to gold-plus.
But if you want to make a fuss of it, then you crack on.
