    True that. Anyone notice that the people most up in arms about the karma feature are those whose posting style can be described as obnoxious and boorish? :roll:

    I don't like the Karma feature at ALL....are you saying I'm obnoxious and boorish?

    Nah, but you're not necessarily "up in arms" per se about it either, are you? Have you made any topics and/or beat it into the ground?

    I couldn't agree with you more.

    one thing i really like about this is that it gives me a chance to give little anonymous (sometimes i'm shy) thank you's to people who've helped me in the past. like pitu, who's told me about good restaurants and foodie things. (guess that one was less anonymous, but i definitely owe pitu more than one karma point.)

    I think that's probably what the feature is meant to be, and how it has been used on other boards (what Emily was referring to on the PS board). I'm kinda hoping that the whole thing will calm down and function that way.
