Did you find a post exceptionally good? Did someone act like a jerk?

Assuage your conscience and air out your karma laundry here.

Wait.. if someone posts something you find negative, you're supposed to draw more attention to the negative post? hmmm..

King of Twitch · « **Reply #2 on:** July 09, 2010, 12:02:25 AM »

Perhaps you could post it in a constructive, positive way.

Thatguy and Mop-it-up must be stopped; that kind of score can not be healthy for the forums.

So is this basically where we explain our reasoning for applauding or smiting people?

I applaud any post that makes me chuckle. BnM is responsible for a lot of those. Crimm gets lots of random applauds. I'll applaud reviewers when I really like their reviews.

Both Mop it up and Thatguy tend to make good posts so I reward them. Also, people that I feel are wrongfully getting over smitten I will applaud to counter the negativity. Like Ratchman.

I smite people usually when I feel they are bringing down a conversation. Not necessarily derailing it, but making me want to start ignoring the thread or something. I've smitten 'Reggie' a lot for that. I don't care if they are right or wrong, it just makes those threads less appealing to me. Spyke also on occasion when I feel he's being a little too nit-picky on technicalities.

I recall both smiting and applauding Pale, Dasmos, Perm, Kytim, Vudu and Lindy but not the reasons why. If someone says something rude to another person I'll smite them.

I applauded Zap and Stratos for their most recent posts in this thread. Sorry, Perm, but something like 72% of your post isn't even yours.

I figured they were just applauding each other on a regular basis. They are both PixlBit writers, after all.

I'm disappointed in this topic. I thought it was going to involve some sort of game where the winners received a point.

Stratos · « **Reply #9 on:** August 04, 2010, 10:18:53 PM »

I'm disappointed in Mop it up because she obviously has not applauded me as much as I have applauded her...

that Baby guy · « **Reply #10 on:** August 04, 2010, 11:51:13 PM »

Another point for Stratos. He makes beautiful posts.

Mop it up · « **Reply #11 on:** August 05, 2010, 12:46:51 AM »

Stratos made a post without a typo?

[applaud]

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #12 on:** August 05, 2010, 12:49:20 AM »

I applauded her to 42 earlier today and she's now at 44. Either she's getting enough applause's to negate your smites or you didn't really smite her.

I didn't smite anyone

I was j/k

[smite] for joking about a topic as serious and important as this.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #16 on:** August 05, 2010, 02:20:28 AM »

now I'm smiting everyone in this thread

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #17 on:** August 06, 2010, 01:58:33 PM »

I just smote TJ Spyke for correcting points made by a spambot.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #18 on:** August 06, 2010, 02:21:05 PM »

is smote the past tense for smite?

I thought it would be smited, but I'm no english major and I'm not gonna look it up on wikipedia/dictionary.com/google, copy/paste the results and pretend I knew that all along.

Stogi · « **Reply #19 on:** August 06, 2010, 04:02:46 PM »

its smitten

and who's idea was this karma bullshit anyway?

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #20 on:** August 06, 2010, 05:24:44 PM »

Smitten is a different form of it, not applicable to this situation. Smote was the correct, or at least a correct, form for how I used the word, at least according to the Oxford English Dictionary built into my computer.

Pale. It's usually starts and ends with him.

King of Twitch · « **Reply #22 on:** August 13, 2010, 02:39:42 AM »

15? I said wow.

I keep applauding Caterkiller and BlacknMild2k1 for posting the Iwata Asks interviews/3DS info, and have begun reflexively smiting Kytim89. Sorry, but it's therapeutic.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #23 on:** August 13, 2010, 06:04:38 PM »

I've been smiting Ian because quiet frankly I am tired of his derailments.

ThePerm · « **Reply #24 on:** August 16, 2010, 04:45:34 PM »

if only it was actually a wheel and once you reach -360 it turns to 0 and also the same for +360
