You have received -1 Negative Karma

[babo]

There are much worse things than receiving negative karma, such as having the red dot on the profile (zoom 1) for not declaring multiple accounts on the forum. That, among other things, will make it impossible for the user to participate in signature campaigns...

Exactly. The red bar on a profile speaks more louder than the -Karma itself. Though when you received -Karma it is painful but when you do well and create good content then when more positive karmas inflow then your negative karma you were angry with would be a thing of the past. But the red bar has different interpretation about the user. Probably he is spammer, shitposter, scammer etc. And the worst of them all you can't use the account to participate in signature campaigns, and bounty hunting.

but as the forum becomes bigger you have to somehow take action, since otherwise you risk chaos
the idea of red dots is excellent, those who deliberately spam are punished and those who write quality are rewarded with blue dots
Well done to whoever had this idea

You are absolutely right, I think sometime last week or last upper week, I in a row, received like 2 or 3 negative Karma, possibly for my thraad on my suggestion to the admin to scrap the Negative Karma system and let users only use the report feature instead of giving users negative Karma, this suggestion I believe didnt sit well with some forum users, but instead of them commenting their disagreement and moving on, some went ahead to give me a negative karma, it was actually painful watching my earned positive karma drop 2 to 3 times in a row, but I completely just ignored it.

Today, those positive karma I lost, I've earned them all back again, which indeed shows that, it's perfectly better to lose karma, then do what will you get the red dot, for actually, it's completely over for any account that gets the red dot, yeah, the user can still post and participate in discussions on this forum, but he or she will never be taken seriously by other users again, and worst of all, like you mentioned, such user can't be accepted into any forum activity, promotion, like signature campaigns, any contest, raffles and so on.

I understand very well, the same system created problems and paranoia in other forums
people learned from each other and didn't write, I can tell you that if you're not a spammer and you're a normal person, stay calm and write
as for the reviews, in the long run, you will have a normal and fair score, because infinitely with many people you will meet, mathematically you will arrive at the correct average

is math, and we can trust in math

            -  You did it well op, the only thing I noticed here in this forum when you are given negative karma is that you can redeem it or get it removed again through the points that we will pay to the admin, and something that is not there in the other forum platform.

Second, those who give positive and negative karma are also anonymous, while on the other side we can see who gave the karma, then I'm just not sure if there is a way to recover the negative karma on the other side, but it seems like there isn't but here there is on this platform https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=657.0

True depending on the offense. I try not to involve myself in activities where I would have to worry about negative trust or karma though. In the long run it's not worth it.

Today I noticed that I received negative karma, although it's possible that this has happened before - and I'm honestly very interested in which post it was because I don't think I've ever written anything that could cause someone to react to a negative way. Some still seem to think that negative karma is justified if you disagree with someone's opinion, but that is simply a misuse of negative karma.

I don't think that we should know who gave us negative karma, because some members would certainly take revenge on others, but I think that we should know for which post we received negative karma, because then at least we could dispute such situations if it turns out that the post does not deserve such an action.

admin already said that it is on his to do list, so it is just a matter of time. Later we'll see which posts got karma.

But disputing each case can be not so important. As long as you get much more positive karma some occasional -karma should not be a big deal.

Almost everyone in altcoinstalks forum received negative karma at least once, except maybe admin, so I would not worry so much about that.
Someone didnt like and didnt agree with what you wrote and they have the liberty to give one negative karma if they want.
I think it is better that we cant see who gave us negative karma, that means there no drama

I'm nearly sure he's not an exception. But I don't think he cares if someone gave him some occasional karma. 

If it is not a systematic abuse, just let pass it by!

The freedom to inflict negative karma on anyone is unquestionable, but it is questionable whether such an action is justified. You claim that someone didn't like my post and that this is a valid reason for negative karma - but the rules say that negative karma should be used in the following cases :

Negative karma is given to users who are misbehaving, breaking the rules, being aggressive or disruptive to the forum

Anyone who uses negative karma for any other reason is actually abusing that feature and should suffer the consequences.

If it is not a systematic abuse, just let pass it by!

How can someone know if he is the subject of systematic karma abuse if he is not even aware that someone regularly gives him negative karma? I noticed that I have -1 less karma than yesterday, but if, for example, in the period since the last activity I received x positive karma and x negative in the same period, I would have no idea about it - the number would remain the same.

What I want to say is that anyone can be a victim of systematic karma abuse without having any idea about it - I might have had twice as much positive karma than I have today if someone didn't give me -1 karma every day without being aware of it.

you're breaking your head too much, unfortunately as you well said
no one can say anything if you decide to give negative karma
but this also happens elsewhere with the same methods, accounts burned due to arguments
the only thing to do is to stay calm, write, always speak with respect and politeness and it will never happen that you will have a strong disagreement with someone

this is my advice
