Introducing Karma to BTF

[Saleem]

Is it possible to see who gave you the karma and for what post?

Kinnell, I'm actually searching for such a solution and have found two.. I have to pick one and implement. Do you think I should turn off karma until then or just add that on?

Just add it on. lol Though I do feel that Karma will take the niche that "Hero Member" played on BTF.

And will we be able to purchase BTF apparel, teddy bears and candy with Karma points? I want a Swi-bear.

Yea...

Yea...

If Karma ends up hurting BTF more than helping, it's very easy to disable it. Think of this as a test. Does the community want it? We'll give it a few weeks and see.

+1 to my damn self for being the nycest.


....since karma is what goes around comes around, if someones spreadin hate (im sure we can fill in this space with someone who uses large vocabulary yet lacks substance in arguments) then we should be able to give them -1. gotta take the good wit the bad =)....the -1 thing should be once a day tho to prevent haters from over-haterizing.

If its used correctly, it is a fantastic feature...but as Saleem indicated, the plug will be pulled if it winds up a huge love fest between members whether or not a contribution was made.

i just gave you a +1 for that, just to prove the fact that this CAN be a love fest. (no homo)

 

[Kush]

just be clear about its purpose from the beginning. i cant see this working out tho, personal opinion.

 

[zagreus]

karma sounds hilarious...i think i now have a "like" button for btf. YES!!!

Yes...this would be interesting...but I can also see how people would then be more inclined to use the karma button more wisely/selectively, rather than abusing it under and anonymous guise...

hmmm...I also feel like it'd give regular users/commenters on BTF a better sense of who understands their view points in the bhangra community (especially among those people who just read BTF rather than post)...kind of like a silent affirmation of support?

idk if I'm making any sense...it's too late at night to think properly anymore...

 

[Singhlarry23]

This is a wonderful, better then just writing "+1."

 

[raj42]

There should be a "-1" sign also.

Dude, read the thread before you post...

No Vick, no negative Karma because then the haters come out in full force. This is a positive thing

 

[COMTONDAJATT]

[Ankit]

dunno if i'm just blind or what but i don't think the +1 is coming up for me, did it already get taken down?
