Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I thiink that means Less is always right............Sometimes? :hidewall::D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

God yeah, course we all do.

And besides that, if we all had the same opinions, life would be extremely boring.

To be honest, the 'nice' threads on here are good, but ya gotta love some of the nastier ones lol. One if the reasons I visit the site so often is because you can be guarenteed a good healthy debate, sometimes it does get a bit 'lively' but overall its superb.

I guess, thats my (very minor) problem with the karma system, you can get knocked for having your own opinion. I dont expect people to agree with me on everything but i dont think you should get negative karma for an opinion, only if its expressed in the wrong way.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

And apologies, it felt that was what you were doing.

Guess thats the problem with the internet, makes it hard to judge tone etc and some things can be taken the wrong way

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

No it means Royboy is attempting to stir it once again. :p

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Less you have hit the nail on the head here.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I just presumed the Accy Web 'Clique' was a break way group, formed by the more cantankerous members of the Accy Web 'Mafia'.:D

Happily, like 99.9% of the members of this forum, I agree and disagree with however I want to.:)

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

It is a bit like the boy scout who told his mother that all the other scouts were out of step.

Jambutty posts like only his opinions have any value.....he is often very scathing about the opinions expressed by others......and other people have made the observation that his attitude seems abrasive and aggressive......so surely we can't all be wrong.
He says he is abrasive because that is how people are with him......I'll swop him a tip.....since he gave me one....
'A soft answer turneth away wrath'

My last word in contribution to this thread.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Shame on you Less, Royboy doesn't do that, does he:D:rolleyes:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: who the hell you talking about Rindi:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

However?

Of course I meant whoever.

How come I never see glaring mistakes until the edit time limit has expired?

Can you give red karma to yourself?:rolleyes:

Unsigned of course.:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

can i do the honours???

I can lose my 'negative karma' virginity and look back in years to come, stating to all "yes, dear Rindi, he was my first" ;) x

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Do it.

Really, be my guest.

Comment what you like.

Promise not to start a thread crying about it.:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

:thankya:Thanks Bernie,,,,a p.m. as now been posted to him

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Is that a suggestion, directive or command? :p:confused:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

:p

Well done.

You'll always remember your first.;)

I may have a red mark, but until it starts to affect my bank balance, or my health, I'll learn to grin and bear it.:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Much obliged for the Karma.

However as I have pointed out many times I don’t start the slagging off etc. but I reserve the right to respond in kind if I choose to.

I would add that I ignore more than I respond to.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I think its more the way you respond JB. No offence meant (on this occasion lol)

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I couldnt think of anyone better to lose it to lol ;)

will make it up to you soon

with a little green one that is lol x

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

i dont really understand this karma,no doubt i will in time, but thankyou to the people who have sent me some

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I have compensated him already
- we can't let him martyr himself this way can we;)

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

ooh I'd forgotten all about the AccyWeb mafia. It's a while since we heard about them. If there's a clique I wanna know why I wasn't sent an invitation! :p

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Thank you.

Though I think I quite suited having those arrows sticking out of my head, especially now it's Ascot.:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

karma
Physical, verbal, or mental action; one's destiny as shaped by one's previous actions. Karma is more often used to imply the process of physio-psychic evolution, which is controlled by actions of body, speech, and mind.

According to the laws of karma, no experience is causeless; rather, everything that occurs has its seed in a previous action and every action sows its seed in a successive action that will eventually ripen in accordance with its nature. In brief, an evil deed produces the seed of future suffering, and good deed produces the seed of happiness.

Technically, karma is of two main types: contaminated and non-contaminated. The latter refers to a deed done with awareness of emptiness; this produces no effect on the doer. Contaminated karmas are bad, good, or steady, resulting in lower rebirth, good rebirth, and rebirth in the realm of form, respectively.

:rolleyes:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

First, I want to say I didn't realise it was etiquette to pm thanks when someone sends karma - so - thank you to those who have sent it to me. I didn't mean to be rude.

Second, I'm a member of 4 other forums and 2 of them are always being accused of having a clique. I'm supposed to be in of them! :o If there's a clique on Accyweb, please may I join? If it's the Mafia I think I qualify, I am a godmother - twice - and I use a lot of olive oil. :)

Third, some people may not like Jambutty's thread but that's not stopped them posting, has it? It's getting to be quite a saga. ;)

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

In that case why not call it 'Cow Pats?' :hesoff:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

[quote=West Ender;594014]First, I want to say I didn't realise it was etiquette to pm thanks when someone sends karma -



Whoops......................I didn't know that either..........quickly runs off to pm the kind peeps who have sent her pm....won't be long though ;)

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Whoever you are, you need to learn to grow up!

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

What's the matter Blazey?.....Did you get a cow pat? :D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

The only equivalent to cow pat around here is you.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Bad day at the office methinks?.....Just going to have a cup of tea.
Whilst doing so I will consider how to answer that learn'ed response.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I haven't had a bad day, in fact it has been the complete opposite, but it has been a long day and I don't need to come home and find pathetic anonymous reputation left to me that has no purpose.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Omg, I dont think I have pm'd thanks for karma, dont even usually see it for days either, when I do, I return it when appropriate, but thank you nice people.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I always pm thanks when i get karma and i also pm when a posts been made but i cant give karma (usually to garinda :D )

Ive never had signed red karma but i would also pm and ask why.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Has this thread backfired ? It started off slating the karma system and has become a thread where people are thanking everyone else for the karma they have received :D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

There isn't much point in contributing anymore, as the thread seems to be heavily policed and selectively edited. Very poor and unnecessary.

I'll just add JB to my ignore list and leave it at that. Save him crying to the Mods again.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

He's a good poster, I don't see why you would want to put him on ignore.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Your comment says more about you then I care to know.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Well in that case you might as well put me on ignore as well then, because that must be the least informative post I have ever made in regards to me as a person.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Hear, hear!

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

nowt like bloking what ya dont want to hear lmao

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

is that the virtual equivelent of putting your fingers in your ears and singing 'lalalalalalalalalalalalala'? :D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

careful he doesn't like to be called JB :D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

yep, I think we'd be nearly on page 12 now if they hadn't.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Harper Lee, To Kill A Mockingbird

Brilliant film Blazey, but what has that got to do with the price of fish....:pcool:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I think Blazey is quoting Atticus,who was handing out good Karma in defence of Tom Robinson.Though it did him no good at all and he was still found guilty.Bad Karma took over and he was shot dead after he had escaped.I think:hidewall:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Tom Robinson? the bloke that does Time Team on telly?.. he's crap!

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I thought it was the thought that counted. I give but don't expect to be thanked, some do some don't. I don't think it matters either way.

In the old days you used to get a pop up message telling you had new karma. Since that stopped it can be days before I notice if I have any new karma.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Why would anyone put you on ignore?

You make a broad range of posts on many subjects. You are very opinionated but not in the ignorant way that others are on here. You know I like reading your posts but have pointed out to you that you sometimes go to far, as do lots of us ;)

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Na Mancie thats Tony Robinson, but you were right he is crap:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Tom Robinson:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Well I like him.:p
Didn't you enjoy Blackadder?
I never miss Timeteam.
Apart from his Tv appearances, he is chairman of Equity

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

The film is terrible! The book is superb. The film ruined it.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Just for your infomation the heavy policed editing has been 1 post from the thread.
that was reported.:D
I wonder who posted it:)

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

So you're saying that someone complained because I suggested that JB was boring me? I doubt that somehow. I also believe that when you consider the amount of stirring that has occurred on this thread, my simple post was unnecessarily removed.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

It was reported so it was removed .
anyway can we get back on thread about Karma ta


The karma system was put in place in the early days of Accyweb to help with the post count and it is working perfectly to this day
so i don't think it will be going anywhere soon:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Well he one thing this thread has done i to make me more aware of Karma, I never gave it a thought before

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Good for you Jaysay.:D
But as less has stated if you had done a site search for Karma you would have found at least 20 threads on the subject.:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

dont get me started on this , iv had many a post removed that were well within the rules of accyweb but have been removed because of one person who decided that because they disagree with me my entire post shoud be removed regardless of how many people agreed with what i said

on the other hand iv had plenty of posts that do bend the rules a bit that have managed to stay so it evens its self out in a strange way

but yes it is frustrating when a perfectly decent posts gets removed because 1 person or 1 person and their buddy decide that your opinion or view isnt the same as theirs and gets your post removed

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

/note to self - add Mick to my ignore list. ;) :D

Karma should be treated in the way it's intended, as a bit of fun. I do like to receive positive karma, as it indicates that I've helped someone, or made them laugh, or whatever. Negative karma isn't always nice, but I don't lose sleep over it.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Site search Mick, takes me all my time to press the post button never mind do a search:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

This is true dont loose sleep over it .
its like the Ackers just for fun:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I don't usually agree with tin monkey :rolleyes: but have to say to mick think it is unfair if a post is deleted because someone reported it. It should be checked by a moderator and if ok then left if breaking rules then deleted, otherwise the reporting of posts could be abused by people who may dislike others for whatever reason!!

as for karma... loving it :p

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

That does not sound right. The post must have been outside the rules or have been offensive to the reporter. I am sure you would not have a post/thread removed just because it was reported.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

So says the man who goes crying to the mods every time a post upsets him. Please Mr. Mick sir, they're picking on me again.

I posted one that's been deleted.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

My post saying karma threads are so last season disappeared too.:confused:

Hardly offensive.

Miffed I posted it again, and it stayed this time.:D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I don't know about that, the rabid dog wasn't all that bad: a good piece of canine acting:rolleyes:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I can't say that I'd noticed. ;)

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

And look how well it works. Just look how many pages wouldn't have existed in this thread alone had it not been for the very existence of the karma system :D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I reported a post for the disgusting innuendo it contained and quite rightly it has been removed.

Of course having a post deleted won’t stop people from breaching the forum rules.

If the only sanction against rule breakers is deleting posts then it is akin to a slap on the wrist that most members complain about when a thug in the real world gets an ASBO. All a bit pointless really!

Maybe serious rule breaches like abuse etc should carry a suspension from the forum for a few days, a week, a few weeks, a month, a few months or permanent? Or maybe a 10% or 20% reduction in Karma? Yes I know, some people will just open another account but there is a rule to take care of that.

Rule 3 is breached in practically every thread and I doubt if many people know that rule 10 exists.

To help those who are not familiar with the forum rules or would like to refresh their memories have a look at http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/f...mer-29681.html

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

yer at it again jim, yer acting like the gaffer, it aint your forum nor mine, if ya don't like the way its run the choice is yours.:rolleyes:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

So making suggestions is acting like a gaffer is it?

Are members not entitled to offer suggestions or constructive criticism about the forum?

I make suggestions to my MP from time to time and so do thousands of other people to their MP’s and Councillors. Does that mean we are all acting like MP’s or Councillors?

No! Of course not.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Just been thru this whole thread and there have been 2 posts removed by the mods, that's all, not just random heavy handed editing as we have been accused of.:rolleyes:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Now on a lighter note before I tuck into a Strawberry Gateaux or rather what is left of it after nibbling away for the last few days.

My thanks to Nickleson, cashy, shakermaker and one anonymous comment of “I love YouX” attached to a bundle of positive Karmas. I can’t remember if I missed out only me, so my thanks to you too.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Replying to who?

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

seems that way to me when the same old hat is constantly repeated, can't see any other angle, when it is repeated it strikes me as constant critisism of the way the forums run, also a sly dig at the mods, if ya don't like me opinion tough, thats it.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Is it not time to put this to bed?

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

i thought that many pages back roy, but he will not let it rest.:rolleyes:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I am surprised he still sees you. I bet he would rather lose your vote and not have to speak to you again.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Actually it’s a she and I have never seen her nor she me.

But as usual you have jumped to conclusions that turn out to be erroneous.

Some of us can still write letters.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

i dispute that, my last post on the subject was on Page5 post77, when i said 2 days ago thats the end of me, its you who has gone on @ on @on, i feel just as strongly about this as you do, so cos ya hadn't shut up i returned on post 177, so ya aint always right.:rolleyes:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I think this thread has run its course.

The mods have said that karma is here for the duration.

The majority of people haven't got a beef with it.

That just about sums it up, I'd say.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

maybe its time they closed this thread then?


and maybe they should ban all threads about karma? :D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Hear hear. :)

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Here I stand, broken hearted...put it to bed and fart in peace in a single bed...just like Margaret. Who loves ya babe?

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

Why all the fuss about karma? Is it lifethreatening if you get some red? No didn't think so but if I was getting red karma to the extent that it upset me I would begin to think about what I was posting and how it came across. Maybe because I already sit back and think before I post there has only been a couple of red squares in my karma. The rules of the forum say any karma can be sent without a signature although I always sign mine. As for the comments, why not just get in touch with a mod if you find them offensive?? That is what the mods are there for to take care of any concerns we have. Life is to short to worry about things like karma IMHO.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

When Gayle stopped writing her column in the Observer, and we then had the Moaning Old Codger column instead, I wonder whatever happened to him, when it proved very unpopular with the readers, and had to be dropped?:rolleyes:

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I agree with cashy here Jambutty, you do sound like you are attempting to have things changed, I guess everybody has an issue or two with things on the forum, but because we enjoy the rest of it, nobody complains, most would also not have the cheek to have a dig at roy or the mods for the good work they do, I recently heard one of the people on here making very nice comments about jambutty as a person, I dont envisage hearing any more anytime soon. ROYS SITE, ROYS RULES!! Live with it, or find a forum you like more and keep off this one.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I thought Gayle wrote them both :eek::D

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

I am gobsmacked and amazed and utterly flabbergasted. In fact my flabber has never been so gasted. With acknowledgment to Frankie Howard who first coined the phrase in the Music Halls of days gone by.

Here we have several members screaming this thread should be stopped and closed down and pointing the figure at me for keeping it going. Yet what do we get? Those same screamers making post after post (over 40 of them) and still blaming me.

Oh! I forgot! I’m supposed to do as the screamers say not as they do. They need a reality check because I don't bow to bullies.

We sure do have a lot of new forum owners.

This is my last word in this thread.

Re: Karma Award Scheme
 

As this thread has gone so off topic i think its run its course and is now closed
i am not going through it to delete all the off topic posts
