I noticed that on the search page, under the threads there is a rank (eg-24 (OK))


Is this the karma system?

I think it might have to do with the relevence or something like that. The higher/lower the number, the better, or something like that.

As for the "#K" part, I have no idea what that means.

Good question. I'm not sure.
I was wondering that too.
Maybe there is an automatic system that ranks your posts?

Well, if it is some sort of karma system........my karma sucks! AND I HATE THE KARMA SYSTEM.

But I have a different rank for most of my posts....how does that work?

I think it is a rank of how pertinent that topic is to your search, or something like that. I don't think it is a Karma System.

Yep. Just like google.. the links you want are usually in the first few pages.

That makes a lot more sense than a karma system.

If it is or isnt, either way, people are going to try to improve their karma, though that might not be what that is.

Ill look into it more, but I think the 0K is, if it is karma, the karma earned from that post.
0K means 0 karma. 2K means 2 karma. Just a thought.

Edit: Or not...

But couldn't you get bad karma? What does negative karma look like? I haven't seen a negative sign anywhere.

Yes, and the overall amount of the --K added together exceeds the total amount shown. Yet another failed theory. Should I sig that?

Stosh <3's me vicariously... at least someone does...

Well I think it has something to do with relevance and amount of time.

I was rank:20 (2K) in a february thread.
And much lower in some more recent ones.

I think it's just some code that leaked over.
