so i was scrolling through this ski personality relation thread and downing all who i saw fit, and it got me thinking, what is the possibility to reboot in a way the karma we all were once so hyped on? When i say reboot i mean make it so that it would for a sort of bit coin on NS, where the higher you karma ranking the more access you had to certain parts of the site. Like you could use ur karma to buy ur way into the donators club and all that they include, and with each purchase through karma koins (patent pending) you would gain further access into certain aspects of NS. Im not a donator but i believe there is a difference between being a $ donator and a gold donator, and with that there is a difference in what you are able to access. my point is that we should be able to use our karma as a system of payment that could buy our way into the donators club or even other forms of trade, such as becoming a moderator of your own subs and so on, i haven't really thought this through but i still think it wouldn't be a horrible idea.
In this situation there's about a 1% chance that your idea could lead to anything positive, a 98% chance it would be a complete disaster, and a 1% chance that your brain was not recently replaced with a baked potato
thanks for "downing" everyone you saw in that other thread you dick
steezy_dogethanks for "downing" everyone you saw in that other thread you dick
never said i downed everyone, only those that were stupid. but still didn't think this was a horrible idea, since karma is no longer that big of a deal why not put it to good use, if not for gaining contributor status then for something else perhaps?
No. For the reason that, karma is such a poor indication of the quality of a member. Skiierman had 370,000 karma, but he was one of the shittiest members going.
Oh, and if you want to join the 'donators club' just buy your way in like everyone else, -it's $5, take the bins out twice for your mum and you'll be able to pay for it.
Also buying your way to moderation is lame af
no because it would like turn into a game. people would try and post funny shit just to get karma points.
So you are saying that people should be able to be a donator without ever donating.
No
jlens05no because it would like turn into a game. people would try and post funny shit just to get karma points.
You don't think people don't do this already?
ImmasAlso buying your way to moderation is lame af

El_Barto.yea...what happened to the the days when someone could just suck their way to the top like you did Sammi

Still gets the job done though.

You can't call me Sammi.
loganschnurYou don't think people don't do this already?
yeah i guess so. but it would get super bad
does anyone even look at someone's karma and judge them based on it?
The idea only works on sites like stackoverflow, but then everyone is just trying to better other people and it turns into an arms race that no one ever wins.
More karma = more OP's moms that you can bang
