scobleizer wishes Jun 06, 2008 08:03AM I cared more about gaining Karma points. But I don't, so I'll go back to complaining about Twitter being down.
shaf says Jun 06, 2008 08:05AM karma is not something to be proud about. Have you not seen the plurkaholics thread?
the JoshMeister says Jun 06, 2008 08:10AM plurking for the sole purpose of gaining karma is a sad, sad thing. Complaining about Twitter is all the rage these days, though!
dusty Jun 06, 2008 08:11AM So, what if you just send short messages back and forth rapid fire with one person, wouldn't you game it?
paulfabretti thinks Jun 06, 2008 08:14AM Robert is just looking for things to complain about because Plurk is up all the time!
leonho says Jun 06, 2008 08:33AM I don't care about Karma point as well. Just a "bling bling" feature right
mahadewa thinks Jun 06, 2008 08:41AM that even if everybody says that Karma doesn't mean anything to them, but 'deep down inside' it does It's all about Human subconscious
daynah says Jun 06, 2008 09:03AM Robert, you're one funny guy. But ya, karma points don't mean too much once you can edit your profile.
christianbogh thinks Jun 06, 2008 10:23AM what's really interesting is that people complain about twitter all the time but still loves it and that people don't leave twitter for good
christianbogh thinks Jun 06, 2008 10:24AM that this says something about the strength of twitter... I would leave plurk in a second if they have the same amount of problems
chrisdpratt thinks Jun 06, 2008 10:43AM it's twitter's simplicity that does it... if I'm on plurk, I find myself doing all sorts of things I probably don't have time for
TheDudeDean says Jun 06, 2008 11:29AM Well if you followed more people back you would gain more Karma!
TheDreamer says Jun 06, 2008 02:06PM at first I wanted a different graphic, but now I don't. Though the extra emoticons were nice....
sooz5 Jun 06, 2008 02:27PM I may not have a "Karma goal" but I know I'll never let a particular webfriend get ahead of me...hehehe!
tonysteward likes Jun 06, 2008 02:45PM the idea of a karma rating - as long as it encourages positive community behavior, and not spamming.
edsonst thinks Jun 06, 2008 03:28PM Twitter will be reliable soon... They were not expecting Scoble/Calacanis massive activities... it will be fine !

nalei wishes Jun 06, 2008 06:12PM i was nicer in my past social media life. otherwise i would have a glowing karmic existence. i suppose i didnt respond to enough threads!
GeekMommy Jun 06, 2008 06:25PM Plurk = hippy coffee house - smilies, karma, conversation pits. Twitter = neighborhood bar - bare bones & beer not always open for business.

GeekMommy Jun 06, 2008 07:59PM yeah, I locked up on that one - but no way to delete a comment you've made...sigh
DSN Jun 06, 2008 08:00PM observes that GeekMommy may have partaken in some stuff @ the hippy coffee house. (plse help with karma: need ftbc emoticon)
CoachDeb feels Jun 07, 2008 01:23AM the same - I reFUSE 2 B manipulated by this Karmatic ploy to stay on plurk -THAT's why I'm finally using Friend Feed more & see Y u luv it
smashingred says Jun 07, 2008 07:33PM that's good. Karma should happen but for those who don't garner an instant following it can be a little intoxicating.
franksmith says Jun 09, 2008 12:40AM you don't care cuse you score is so itty bitty and tiny If your karma was big you'd tell the world. That's the truth of the matter.
bruceturner thinks Jun 13, 2008 08:02PM plurks about twitter being down have probably contributed to as much karma here as any conversation ever did.
martinbogo says Jul 08, 2008 06:36PM "it's actually a measure of if/how you are using the service in a friendly way"
finucane says Jul 08, 2008 07:18PM I've always wanted social sites to have a Karma system to punish trolls and reward interaction, I think it's a step in the right direction
JimBob51 says Jul 08, 2008 11:30PM I actually do not look now - the community spirit that I feel here is so strong -just talking and sharing with the community is best
