We need a "karma system" like in the Red Versus Blue Forums. It should be called something different though.

If I could, I'd quote Achronos.

He said the karma system coming will most definitely not be like RvB. As in people giving other people points.

Which is good, flood favorites should not get anything for posting about mostly nonsense.

Achronos has confirmed something similar is on the way. Although Bungie.net's version will not require much (if any) human input, so don't expect to be rating other users yourself. A karma system exactly like RvB's would be disastrous here. Just imagine, Davester (major spammer) and co. with methods to actually do some damage to other users instead of only providing a minor annoyance.

Runnnnnn!

I agree with Psyched.Spammers and the like will just find some way to be a jerk and mod people down.Also,I really hope there isn't some "special" forum for people with a high karma like in RvB.

I just hope there won't be too much human meddling.

Soon™ There will be a karma system more abused than you can possibly imagine, well I hope not anyway. As long as you don't give anyone but the mods powers to control the system we should do fine.

You won't even be able to see the results of your karma. But if its good, Bungie will reward you. Yay!

no, NO! NOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
It will be abused, overused, miss used, and used in many more wrong ways. The trolls will be all over it, giving out "points" in random. This will go BAD.

Aren't you a day early Lellow?

And Achronos did say something about a "karma" system of sorts; but as already stated, it will not involve human interaction. Also, it is not guaranteed to happen. He might make something that he doesn't like and just scrap the whole idea.

Gimpy, don't be an idiot. Comparing the wiimote to the power glove is like comparing sex to dieing.

Why do we even need a karma system?


What would be the point?

Like I said before. Bungie is the only one who can see your karma. They will reward you for good karma. Don't you want a reward? I sure do. So, if people think you made a good, intelligent post, they give you good karma. So, bungie sees you are a good member of the community, so they reward you.

A karma system would be nice. I don't know much about them though.

dude, you pulled a jesus!

I'm guessing that if this goes into affect, then the Flood will be less judged upon than the other forums? Because if it isn't, I think many flood members' karma will be going down the drain quick

The general idea is to promote better behavior from the users of the Bungie.net forums. The basic principle is: Little Johnny will behave correctly if he knows he will get some candy for his efforts.

I think it's a brilliant idea, since most users here can't (wont?) seem to follow any kind of rules unless they get some kind of virtual "candy" for following the forum guidelines. It won't stop spamming entirely, nothing can, but it will slow it down. Another thing I really think the system will help combat are the worthless posts that don't really serve any purpose and yet stay within the rules, bearly. AKA: Person 1: How are you? Person 2: Cake!- you know, those kinds of posts. They're lame and waste forum space.

It was a cold day near the southern base in Blood Gulch. Cortana and I were relaxing over a game of Go Fish, WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE 700 BANSHEES CAME FLYING IN!!! I GRABED MY SPARTAN LASER AND LET HELL REIGN DOWN UPON THEM. I HOPPED IN THE NEAREST WARTHOG AND TOLD CORTANA TO GET IN.

Garrr!

I be having no objections to the Karma System, but I also be having no objections to no Karma System.
