The beefburger speaks sense for once.

It's like those youtube thumbs-up/thumbs-down thing, isn't it?

Yes, it would be like that.

Vis, if you want to do it so much, start a thread and tell people to play along in their sigs or in the one under thier pic.

Although, that may get abused....

I've seen the karma thing, but it was on a different type of forum (an oldish, crappy one...). From memory it gave options to exalt or smite people, then listed your karma.

I reckon that sort of thing just leads to newbie abuse. Imagine joining a forum and then having a whole bunch of people instantly smite you because they don't like your intro post...   :|

Personally I prefer things to be out in the open, so I'm glad it's not an option here.

Well I don't particularly like Nev's avatar, are you going to ban that too?
I'm sick of the afro smiley, can that be gone?
What about conversation I don't understand?

Where does it end? :roll:

And what are you going to do when you get everyone all into line acting exactly how you want them?

You will have no one left to mod.

there will always be people to mod, because there are gazillions of fucktards like you gracing the planet.

i reckon we should delete post counts when invisible bint gets to 9999. that way, she might experience a small fraction of the pain that we're all exposed to every time she posts.

OK, we've had a couple of meetings, and it's now official. Post counts are now abolished.

Forum members must refrain from reading the "Posts" number beneath their avatar, and must not mention or refer to post counts in any future posts. Anyone found to be abusing this edict will have their post count reduced by 100.

Well, if someone happens to need 100 posts deleted, which of their posts would be deleted? Would it be random selection?

Are short planks thicker than long ones, or is it just a perspective thing?

You know that's exactly what I was wondering, but didn't want to ask. :P
