Karma Question


I am just wondering what karma is and how it affects my board. Thanks.


Edited for a meaningful title.

Re: Not sure if I can post questions here



Karma is a feature of Runboard that allows users to rate other users in a positive (praise) or negative way (smite).

The total karma received on a particular board is shown below a users name in their posts and the number of praises and smites received.

Praising
Praising a user is a positive thing and will increase the users karma total by +1.

To praise a user you need to click 'Applaud' which is in the last bottom line of the users post.

Smiting
Smiting a user is a negative thing and will decrease the users karma total by -1.

To smite a user you need to click 'Smite' which is in the bottom line of the users post.

Notes:
You cannot give yourself Karma
This is a global user feature only.
You can only give a user karma once a day. There are no restrictions on how many users you can give karma to.

Users with the top 20 highest Karma rating across the Runboard network are shown on Hall Of Honor

Frequently Asked Karma Questions:
Q. Is there a way to find out who praised/smited me?
A. No, unless the user who praises/smites you tells you in a post that they have done so.
Q. Whats the point of Karma?
A. There isnt one. Its purely a fun gimmick.

Karma can be turned on and off in the board's misc. settings, but not by an idividual user.
