Hello all,
A cool addition to the site is something called "Karma," which is represented by the smaller (usually two digit) number below a member's post count. It doesn't really have much point, but it's sort of a fun way to recommend a certain member to colleagues on the site, and to show appreciation for something they do.
You give Karma by clicking on the "Exalt" button on someone's profile information over on the left side, under their avatar and information. You take away Karma by clicking "Smite."
A note on Smiting: It isn't cool, and don't do it - ever. If someone does something you don't like, don't Smite them, as that just causes problems. We have Private Messaging on these forums for a reason - talk these things out and solve the problem before it gets worse.
Some reasons to give out good Karma are as follows:
--You really like someone's custom stats (always something that's good here)
--Someone did something cool, like created custom figures, wrote a cool backstory, or created an entire set.
--You appreciate an idea that a member proposes in the General Board.
--Someone reached a milestone in posting counts.
There are always more reasons to give out Karma. It's a lot of fun, and it's cool to have a high post count. We used to give out a lot of Karma on the old site, and that's something we need to start doing more of here.
Karma is cool. Start giving it out.
*waves hand*
You will start giving out Karma.
