LET IT BE KNOWN TO ALL...........

[cain73]

Geeze you say that like I'm hated or something  Don't sweat it I actually asked to be smited. That was the start of this thread to show it means nothing to have a -1000 or +1000 karma rating.

Mama Grizz,
I hate to hear that you're going to delete your account over something so trivial.

The problem is it is not trivial is slamming someone again in a open forum on the internet

  Mama Grizz

Slamming? It is simply giving someone a thumbs up or a thumbs down. If someone says something that you agree with you can give them a thumbs up, If you disagree then you can give them a thumbs down.
Yes, It was set up for members that have 400+ posts but I do see your point and will check with Bones to see if we can do it with established time on the board instead

If you look at the number of votes it is a popularity contest and has nothing to do with what people are writing.

You of all people should know I like to mess with people. Trying the guilt angle. Apparently didn't work too well.

i for one can care less. i was never into popularity contest. positive, negative, whatever dude. i dont care if i'm the last one on this site. i will never delete my account or "threaten" to.  mammagrizz i've never met you but you seem reasonable. i dont understand why you are taking this to heart. is it that important to you?

[Grizzlygirl]

Yes a year ago this site use to be about getting together, riding and supporting each other , what happened.

It's tripled inm size from a year ago. When the site was smaller we all new each other, hung out with each and so forth. We still do, It's just that there is almost 4000 members here. When there's that many people there is bound to be arguments. Just my .02

[cain73]

There are bound to be disagreements, but in my opinion the karma thing will do nothing to discourage or encourage them. If it's for fun it's one thing, but as a weak method of coercion to control what people will and won't post is only going to stifle the good discussions. Again it's my opinion.

Ok, The only way that the board is set up to allow members to post Karma is by number of posts. A couple of members complained so we are lowering the setting from 400 to 250. Thats the best that we can do.

still is as far as I know, I still got my gang I hang with and ride with when I can,,,,,in fact, it wasn't long ago that I blew a head gasket very shortly after pulling my quad off the trailer next to the Grizzmobile during a trash pickup ride at Rodman.

and I'm 9 days and counting from getting together with some of the best people I know from this site thanks to them and many other of the best people I know from the site to go ride together for a long weekend of riding in Georgia.

thank you ATVFlorida

A little quote from Big Daddy on ATVMIAXtreme

One day into karma on the site and the drama is too much.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I will be deleting my account after the Oc t 1 ride. I do not agree with karma. It allows a few to control the site for everyone. If I cannot vote I have no representation and should not receive votes,

Just another example of why the stupid karma deal was a bad idea

i dont think it was a bad idea. i think some of us need to grow up a little.

[cain73]

It doesn't bother me at all. I've joked back and forth with it and could care less. But when you have something that threatens to harm the site community, yet brings no apparent gains, then it doesn't make sense to have it.

Amen to that! Lol   I think that for the few who enjoy it, there are always going to be some that get offended. And if it brings this much controversy than maybe we should keep it?
