• 
  June 06, 2008 at 08:10 the JoshMeister says plurking for the sole purpose of gaining karma is a sad, sad thing. Complaining about Twitter is all the rage these days, though!

  June 06, 2008 at 08:10 gdruckman thinks that his 54.39 karma points wont matter
• 
  June 06, 2008 at 08:11 dusty Karma is based on messages like these.
• 
  June 06, 2008 at 08:11 dusty So, what if you just send short messages back and forth rapid fire with one person, wouldn't you game it?
• 
  June 06, 2008 at 08:11 dusty I suspect they will change it soon.
• 
  June 06, 2008 at 08:11 dusty The Twitterati came and shook up things a bit.

  June 06, 2008 at 08:16 dusty I wish I could 'flag' certain conversations so I could easily find them.
• 
  June 06, 2008 at 08:16 hoof says he does like the song Instant Karma by John Lennon. And for now Plurk's Karma feels rather instant too.

  June 06, 2008 at 08:33 leonho says I don't care about Karma point as well. Just a "bling bling" feature right

  June 06, 2008 at 10:23 christianbogh thinks 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
• 
  June 06, 2008 at 10:24 christianbogh thinks that this says something about the strength of twitter... I would leave plurk in a second if they have the same amount of problems
• 
  June 06, 2008 at 10:43 chrisdpratt thinks 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
• 
  June 06, 2008 at 10:44 chrisdpratt thinks on twitter, I post and go back to work

  June 06, 2008 at 14:45 tonysteward likes the idea of a karma rating - as long as it encourages positive community behavior, and not spamming.

  June 07, 2008 at 17:58 biznickman says You are clearly not plurking enough Scoble
• 
  June 07, 2008 at 19:33 smashingred says that's good. Karma should happen but for those who don't garner an instant following it can be a little intoxicating.
• 
  June 09, 2008 at 00:40 franksmith says 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.

• 
  July 08, 2008 at 18:36 martinbogo says "it's actually a measure of if/how you are using the service in a friendly way"
• 
  July 08, 2008 at 18:36 martinbogo nothing more.
• 
  July 08, 2008 at 18:37 martinbogo Would you feel the same way, if it was called a"reputation" score?
• 
  July 08, 2008 at 18:48 martinbogo is working on that one
•
