hey what does accumulating bad karma do for me?

too short

 

it lets everyone know people dont like you

 

don't worry about karma.

 

how nice

 

well its true, if people give you bad rep it means they dont like what youre saying, if they give you good rep it means they like what you're saying



but yet gerties right dont worry about it

 

why do you worry so much about what people think about you why does this site have that reputation thing anyway. It's like everything everywhere is a popularity contest

 

popularity is a figment of imagination...

 

i dont view it as a popularity contest


in real life if you have a problem with somebody, telling them is going to help both of you


if you have something you want to compliment someone on or criticize them on in private, that's what the rep system is for, in my opinion


sure, people abuse it, but people are always going to abuse everything


personally i think we should all be taking what people say with an open mind, if someone tells you you're being an asshole and not thinking about other people's feelings, dont take offense to it, rather take a step back and look out how you're acting, with an unbiased mind

 

yep... hahha...

it's kinda like saying "bitch, step off ma grill"

 

like micha





george dont bother answering my question about the guitar...ill just ask someone else....

 

but karma works more than just telling someone that you agree or disagree with their opinion... it can work that way, but it can also work as ways for ppl to attack others without having to take responsibility for their words as it would occur in real life, face to face. (or even messaging.)

 

exactly gertie, which was what i was saying about people abusing it.. you just put it in clearer terms

 

it's easy for you to say!

ive been here for a while now and im still accumulating bad karma.

 

I think the whole rep thing on this site is a rather idiotic idea. I'm sorry, but
I don't require constructive criticism, nor do I want any. It's just a damn forums site, and so far nothing HAS been constructive. I'm sorry, but when someone gives me negative rep for my post "I dont understand the point of negative rep" and they write "You petty little bitch" and don't sign their name, wtf?

It doesn't matter though. Everything is all 1's and 0's, and we'll all die some day.
