no, I'd have to say having the karma system is pretty stupid. I wish I could just make it to where it doesn't show up on my profile info, and therefore have no need to complain, but no. I'm going to b***h about this.
And THATS why they have karma.
I see what you did there. I'm not blind. I can see my profile data. And this is leading to exactly what I don't like.
EDIT: I did something quite unprofessional just a few minutes ago at the time of this edit. I am now undoing it.

Eh… Kinda stupid if you ask me. Its not at all a real representation of popularity at the fourms. Newo is well respected and because of a joke his is at -60000 or something. So is xparasite9's but I don't know how it got that low with out everyone trolling on him. (Which I can see happening easily)

I think it was bought back because the admins got bored.

I really liked this feature, mainly because I used it as karma/post rating i.e if someone had a bad reputation and they made a good post I would +1 that person and vice versa, or if someone just made a really good post and or contributed something great or a lot to the community, I myself see this as the only reasonable and beneficial way to use this feature, I would like it if people would not mess it up for us who intend to use it the right way.

But of course, you will get the odd one or two people who make a fuss, sorta like:

"Why was I given -1? I never did anything" and other, less well typed variations.

Bottom line: LIMIT DRAMA.

Something this thread is failing to do.

I'm unsure why Glitch Power even caused drama in the first place. It doesn't affect the user at all in the first place, other than a changing number near the username. All the more reason to have carefree fun with it.

It doesn't really matter, it's just some little number to have fun with!

Post counts are the also a little number with very little actual meaning but all over the internet there are forums where the members cause a big fuss about them.

I have no strong opinion one way or the other on the karma/"glitch power" system.
