Profiles
 

Hi only recently joined and am wondering about how you increase Karma and what benefits it has, also how do you get Ackers .Also other things in the profile. Can we go over those with the mouse & it tells you? I can t find any explanation for them. Thanks
Really enjoying the site

Re: Profiles
 

You get ackers when you post threads, the amount of ackers recieved, is dependant on which thread you post in.
Karma you recieve off other members, good karma if they like what you post, bad karma deducted if they don't like what you post, or have a disagreement with you.
Hope this has helped a little.

Re: Profiles
 

Cheers And what about power?

Re: Profiles
 

Your power goes up dependant on how many posts you have, and how much karma, and i think (not sure) how long you have been a member.
Power if I am correct, means how much karma you can give. If you have a power of 4 you can give anything up to 4 karma points, but not all the time as sometimes, it will only give the person 2 or 3, so it is the maximum points of karma you can give.
If I am correct, you can only give karma after you have posted 100 times. It's been that long sinse I had to think about it all, I have gone a little hazey. But I think i'm correct, and sure if I am not, someone will correct me.

Joined last fri night, heard about it from cashman. Have found it quite addictive, am on a day off today, wouldnt normally be on at this time of day

Re: Profiles
 

iT DOES GET VERY ADDICTIVE...........................:D :D .

Glad to see you like the site...............;)

Re: Profiles
 

Also if you use the search facility you can usually find an old thread where someone has already asked the same questions.:)


I'm still learning. It was only last week I learnt how to cut and paste in the chatroom, never again!:(

Re: Profiles
 

Cheers. so who is holding who up in your profile pic then? I thought you were the female when I was talking to you on Friday night, and you never corrected me when I said something like , you're a woman after me own heart or words to that efffect!

Re: Profiles
 

hahaha thats class hahaha.. made my day... garinda being naughty :)

Re: Profiles
 

and when you said that cashman & Ange come round yours for a brew, it confirmed it, fellas don't mek brews. At least they didnt when I was there

Re: Profiles
 

If you look on Rindy's profile it tells you he is male, down at the bottom.

Re: Profiles
 

yeah I know now, but with his hotmail add as as rindyroo or whatever, and the photo of the girl I just assumed (obviously incorrectly) that he was an asian female. Garinda not your normal lancashire male name is it?

Re: Profiles
 

haha this gets better.... garinda isnt yer normal lancashire male :)

sorry mate... but yer not! :)

Re: Profiles
 

I also wrongly assumed that Spuggie was scottish, with his flag & a few other things,. but he assures me he is from Accy. I also thought with your name Kipax maybe you are a city fan, but agin I maybe wrong. Never assume I was always told. but I obviously never listened.

Re: Profiles
 

LMFAO;) and another one bites the dust Rindy.......................:D .

Don't worry And Why Not..............this has been ASSUMED before. Not just from you.:D

Re: Profiles
 

aaargh god no! .. yer thinking kippax.. i am not and never have been a fan of either manchester team.........although i am quite taken wiht the new one.. FCUoM :)

Re: Profiles
 

I didn't see you say that I was 'a girl after your own heart'!

Men don't make brews? You've been living in the Black Country, or as we call it the Badlands, too long sweetie.

I remember you asking me which school l went to and I told you QEGS, which from my age you could have worked out was single sex when I was there. Plus like Slinky pointed out I do have a little male winky sign by my name, which doesn't mean I have a little winky, as some of you know!

I didn't mean to mislead you, but I am an Asian babe some Friday nights in the chatroom apparently, when others usually men, want me to cam and lift up my sari.;)

Normal? Never, how very boring!:)

Re: Profiles
 

Do men make brews? I heard of a bloke once who did some ironing.. but i believe he was run out of town :)

Re: Profiles
 

PMSL Garinda it gets u into trouble or it buggers up pmsl n pressin enter rather than get mouse strain ;)

Re: Profiles
 

Yeah my names mud now for teaching him the cut and paste trick!!! :(

Re: Profiles
 

Awwwww Red the life of pc help sos theres no pleasing ppl pmsl

Re: Profiles
 

Re: Profiles
 

single men go to the pub :)

Re: Profiles
 

No! I am still here!! hehe
:rofl38: :rofl38:

Re: Profiles
 

hehe.. I didn't like to name names :)

BTW will my ironing be ready to pick up at 3pm as agreed?

Re: Profiles
 

Yes, when I've finished pressing my sari.;)

Re: Profiles
 

I have to hold my hand up and admit i too thought Garinda was a female asian!! until my dad pointed him out at a accyweb meeting.

Soo Soo Princess Sorry Rindy please forgive me!

Maybe you could teach me your new found talent and teach me to cut and paste eh wadda ya say rindy roo?

Re: Profiles
 

i thought garinda was a friendly but wierd and odd extrovert... how wrong was I ? :)

Re: Profiles
 

I know that Kippax has 2 p's . wasnt sure if you could spell it, or you just keyed incorrectly.
There are some great names on here dont; you think? and they conjure up all sorts of images.
Take Harwood Red. 1st thing that came to my mind was a hair colour, and then a bus service, (theres one in the midlands or used to be called Midland Red) no offence Red, if I can be so bold as to call you Red, I noticed our kid called you Red

Re: Profiles
 

An din response to Garindas school QEGS I thought Q E Girls School

Re: Profiles
 

Re: Profiles
 

No it stands for Queen Elizabeth [the first] Garinda [the first]...........oops, I mean Grammar School.

What does your choice of name conjour up, tethered with the fact your Cashy's sister?

It's a Paul Daniels catchphrase is it not?

Not a lot of people know that!

Re: Profiles
 

Just stick to flashing rindy :)

Re: Profiles
 

Willow , well I think I saw in an earlier posting, you'd lost your cat Bracken around Willows Lane so it could be that, or the fact that you are tall & thin & like to flit around thats it really

Re: Profiles
 

And in response to Garindas question about my name. I didnt want a name that was obviously male or female , and I was stuck tween Yeah Right, and And Why Not, and I thought the latter was less confrontational. Didnt want to be taken as awkward being a new member. Re the Paul Daniels you're obviously a fan & remember more about him than me. And with And Why Not depending on how you say (read) it , it can have more than one meaning. Know what I mean

Re: Profiles
 

Re: Profiles
 

The origins of my nickname, which I had before joining the forum, are given in one of my earlier blog entries, and is too boring to repeat here.


Garinda was also chosen because it was thought to be non generic, obviously not, and why not?;)

Re: Profiles
 

well what about mine then "mez"? i do have the explanation for it but were it it come from ?

Re: Profiles
 

Mother Hen, well that automatically conjures up , a more mature, motherly , warm sort of lady who likes to look after her younger charges.. but for all I know you might have a farm with lots of chickens on.

Re: Profiles
 

Of course you can call me red. The name is due to living in Great Harwood (harwood) and being a stanley supporter (red).

As for the hair colour, def not red head and the bus....well... have been likened to the back end of one before now ;)

Re: Profiles
 

used to have a smallholding with hens, duck, goats, & geese, yes the mother hen is right on , but the "mez" comes from a friends child who shortened my name which to this day i didn't think you could.
