Devil is Double is Deuce and Joker always trumps Deuce.
I really think a karma system would be a bad move for the forums. Picture this situation: You've just created a thread about Rap, when some totally anti-Rap user comes in and just neg rates the hell out of you and your thread. It could have been the most decent, rule-abiding thread on the forums, but now it has so many neg rates that everyone assumes it's spam. Basically, if someone didn't like you, or disagreed with your thread, they could destroy it, so-to-speak. Also, imagine the damage a spammer could do with that kind of karma system. He/she could just go in, neg rate every thread in the forum, and destroy peoples' karma.
P.S. Neg rate is short for negative rate. Sorry, I'm getting too used to the rvb.com forums. (Another site where karma is a double-edged sword.)
(Hmm, that's odd. Why is my post time two hours earlier than everyone elses?)
