Ok, I read the sticky thingy at the top of the page about karma.

  Can someone fill me in on the point of this? Im just confused on if it does anything. This is the only site im a member of that has this and its confusing me.

  Does the plus bless come down over time, what about the negative side? If its in the negative, does it come up or get counteracted by the positive bless?

  Deep useless thoughts here im thinking but I have to ask.

There's no real "point" to ir per se, it's just a way that people can show their appreciation of you (or their dislike) It does serve as a general indicator of what a person is "like", so to speak. Trolls and obnoxious people will tend to get karmaed down and vice versa.

The 'bless' and 'smite' figures don't change by themselves, they only change if someone blesses or smites you. For example if you have 50 'bless' points, that figure will never drop (although it can go up). Upon occasion I've been known to reduce what I feel is an unfair 'smite' level (usually when it becomes apparent that someone is on a smite-fest against another person).

Karma is a Buddhist belief that whatever you do comes back to you.....and / or...........your belief will have equal reprecussions affecting you.

  But what if you are not a Buddhist and your belief lies elsewhere, then it does not matter about karma......said the London Rebel.............

  You are as strong as your mind perceives you to be !!

And to all my Buddhist brethens.... male or female.....no offence !! I love you all !!...........

Ok, think I kinda get it now. I thought it was a system like that, I just wasnt sure. Thanks all.

  I kinda like this system, Ive never seen it before. A bless to all of you as well.

You should see Adam's smite point. Now that's high.

  I've not smote anyone......................... recently. No seriously. I deliver bless points, like a beautiful fairy in skippy bikini.

What a wonderful picture. But, do fairies really wear bikinis?

Theres nothing wrong with fairies in bikini's. You can have your fairies wearing whatever you want, I like the idea of a fairie in a bikini!

  NOTE: Im thinking Fairie like Tinkerbell, not fairie like eric clapton. Not that theirs anything wrong with that.. to each his own.
