Godot pwns both of you fags. You should try to be more like him. Seriously. Be like Godot. In fact, I demand that you wear WWGD bracelets and every singe time you're about to post you must look at it and think "What would Godot do?"

Seriously, this has got to end. Can I get three? Not just me, but those of us who are long standing, active members and aren't generally hated. I know it's generally said that people don't look at karma but I do. When I see a new user with ten posts make a bad post I immediately look at his karma to gauge if the other posts he made were probably bad or not. I know it's the cool thing to "ignore the karma system" but maybe it shouldn't be.

I don't know, the potential for abuse seems high. If a new user really sucks there's usually been enough other users around to give the guy negative karma points within a short time span.

Agreed. And it would defeat the purpose... And it would make the forums more of a circlejerk. And it won't discourage the persistent and/or oblivious. And...
