Title: Are they giving karma to active users ?
Post by: Mr. Allcrypto on March 23, 2024, 06:16:00 PM
I just wanted to ask, is it only the senior members in this forum that can give karma, or the forum it self give karma, because definitely everybody im this forum started from somewhere k belive, so how did the first people that started got their karma?
And also do they give karma to users in this forum that post vital stuffs and are always active?

With the little knowledge I have gathered here, you get karma when you make quality post and making quality post is a function of the reader. What reader A sees as a quality post might not appeal quality to another reader and that is why not every ranking member gives karma to a post. I think from Sr Member you can give karma but then you don't have to abuse it.

On the issue of being active, when you are active and make good posts you can get more karma than a member who is inactive even if he makes good posts occasionally.

Only Sr. member rank and above can give +- karma, you are one step to go.
About those first users.

because definitely everybody im this forum started from somewhere k belive, so how did the first people that started got their karma?
This is something you should ask to OGs here. But just like i mentioned below, it always one of them for sure.

And also do they give karma to users in this forum that post vital stuffs and are always active?
Karma are given freely to quality posts, helpful answer, informative posts, as thank you, etc. So as long as you are friendly, answering posts based on facts you're good. Having always active won't earn you +, especially if the posts you made are half-assed posts, not informative and always on anger or aggressive tone.

According to the rules of this forum a senior member can give karma to any other member either positive karma or negative karma, but negative karma is rarely used in this forum. As for giving karma, if you think another member has made a good post and has added enough information to his post that will be helpful to others, you can add a karma to his profile. When you give karma to another member for a good quality post, that member will be more interested in posting and will try to post better quality. If someone else is inspired by one of our small actions, then it is much better to do that small action

or the forum it self give karma

There's no automated karma given to anyone. All karma is given by other users for different posts and contributions. If others see your posts worth giving +karma for them, they do so. If others think that your posts or behavior is bad enough to give -karma, they can do so also. ???

Yes, senior members and up are the only ones allowed to give karma to other forum members. Meaning, that if those allowed to send karma saw helpful posts/threads they can send karma to that certain user even if he is high rank or low rank.

Being active depends on you, but there are benefits to being active. You can gather knowledge with every new thread being created by another user, and you can also join raffles and different campaigns to make extra bucks. But it doesn't mean you can immediately get karma just by doing that, you can earn karma by posting important information, that kind of information that can be beneficial to anyone who can read it.

I probably have joined this forum but wasn't active when the karma system was introduced on this forum, and I've never really bothered to try to find out it's history, but what I do think is that, it's very possible that some users have already got to the level of senior members through their activity score on the forum before the karma system was introduced, and with enough senior members and above rank, karma was easily spread across to other low ranking members at the time, which also helped them to rank up to senior levels and joining in the Karma distribution.

And to the second part of your question @op, Karma is not auto given, it is users like you and I that gives each other karma, be it positive karma or negative Karma, this is actually why it seems like for some users, it's more difficult to earn karma because of their posting style, users award positive Karma to posts they find interesting, useful or helpful to a good degree.
So, if you want to grow your positive Karma, only make good quality posts and Karma will surely flow your way.

Finding the topic that you're interested in might help you a bit in posting meaningful posts. For example, if you like trading then post an in-depth analysis of why you predict BTC will hit $100k using Bollinger Band and SMA, etc. I never go out of my way to make posts to get karma, I just focus on stuff that I'm interested in (and naturally have some bit of knowledge around it) and I get some karma here and there. I don't think my activity has anything to do with it either. Obviously you'll get more if you create new interesting topics with good discussion every day, but it takes a little bit of effort to do that and if you're not careful you'll likely end up spamming one or two boards doing that.

It is possible that the whole thing is similar to the introduction of merits on BTT, because then everyone received a certain amount of merits, and some became a source of merits. Even if karma was something that existed from the beginning of this forum, it could only be available to admins who, if I'm not mistaken, are the only ones who can give more than 1 karma at a time (maybe some special ranks can do that too).
Title: Re: Are they giving karma to active users ?
Post by: Dr.Bitcoin_Strange on March 26, 2024, 11:03:54 PM
, so how did the first people that started got their karma?

Just like on Bitcointalk, when the merit system got initiated there, every member was given a specific number of merits based on their activities to qualify for their rank. 

I don't know how it was done on this forum when karma started, but I am guessing that it might have been done the same way as BTT, or probably every rank was allowed to give karma in the past, and at some point, it was only limited to Sr. Member rank, either way.

For junior member ranks up to legendary rank, it is only activities that are required, so even if the karma system got introduced later, it was still possible that admin allowed only senior members to send out karma. 

Sit back and relax; you will soon get to the senior member rank, and you can give out karma.

Well, I came here not from the very beginning, about a year after forum launch, but karma was here already and it had totally no impact on ranking up at that moment. And as far as I remember it was limited to Senior and above at that time also. There was no karma airdrops, so all karma amounts are earned by users. But some users changed their karma to forum tokens in previous years, so some users have a bit less karma than they could if they didn't spend it.

That's surprising to know that aside from points earned through posting, karma can also be exchanged for tokens in the past. This made me look for any discussions or threads related to that. This brings me to this topic, which can also be found on the news in the upper right corner.

Quote from: https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=9231.msg51528#msg51528
- Behaviour, are you good or bad > Measured by Karma, negative karma leads to token forfeit, positive karma can be exchanged into tokens.

I also see that the thread was updated recently, which is last January, so I am assuming that this is still valid, and we can exchange positive karma till now?

Post by: Thyplaymaker on March 27, 2024, 10:26:47 AM
At first those who can give others karma , are from Snr members and above. And you can earn karmas by posting quality post that are either impacting or contributing. While one can earn negative karma, by spamming, posting shit post and also breaking the forum rules. Also you earn points from posting , that why anytime you post your points always addup. So if you wanna enjoy what this forum can offer , go through the rules of the forum to avoid any form of breaking them.

Last time when I saw admin's statements this year, he said that this option is still valid. But it is not what promised forever and I'm not sure it will be valid each ALTT or ALTS payment, better to ask when next payment time will be announced. As to me, I'm not going to change my karma into tokens ever, because I think that karma is more valuable. ::)

I will make sure to do that since it makes me very curious, especially about the conversion rate  ;D the difficulty of earning karma is harder than accumulating points. I mean, it needs to produce something for the better of this forum and a post where it can make someone voluntarily send positive karma.

I also plan to keep my karma, as I stated, earning it is hard and the admin might have other plans on it in the future.

It is the members who issue karma to their fellow ones for a quality post they found with them, the forum is not the one that gives this, they only moderate the calculations on it, also, it is expected that before you can have the desirability of identifying between which post deserves a karma or not, it is expected of you to have experience on the forum in receiving and giving others same, so you can understand the value and usefulness of this same karma, a newbie account to full member cannot do this because they are still fresh about the system and the forum.

No, the karma system doesn't work like BTT merits. In this forum no one is a source of karma which is distributed, here every user with a rank of Sr. Member or higher has the possibility to send positive or negative karma even if his karma counter is at 0 and he has never received any. Users, including all moderator ranks, can only send 1 positive or negative karma to the same user every 10 hours. Only the administrator and the president can send more than 1 positive or negative karma without any restrictions.

Okay, but I thought it was points that can be exchanged for tokens. Anyways thanks for enlightening me about this. But you people should show some love too to encourage other users in this forum by giving them karma  :)

It is a great reminder I almost forgot that only Sr and Sr+ have the ability to send karma to others, Actually I was a senior member on BTT and teleported from there, so I don't have to face the problems that people who grow from zero to Sr on this forum (who are no teleported by ranked only here), as they can't forget this but those who have teleported here on this forum, I guess those who knew it (like me) need a reminder and those who don't know this at all.

Must be given this information because, karma is necessary for newbies and lower ranks so that they can grow also and become Sr too, As those who don't know that only Sr and Sr+ can give karma, they might be sharing karma only with higher ranks, and newbies might be there least priority to give karma to. That's why we all should know this info.

As for at the moment, lower ranks have no karma requirements to rank up. There probably will be requirements not to have negative karma (I'm not sure that at the moment), but even with 0 karma they can rank up to Senior. :)

There will be certain requirements to rank up, the administrator will implement it in the next change of the ranking system, I don't think it will take long, but there are no details yet on what the affected user ranges will be, as I don't think it will include all of them.

That's true mate , good posts gets you Karna as reward and it's when you are active and always contributing here in the forum that will someone see your doings and give you the karma, I have personally given alot of karma's to users that have been making good posts here and I don't see as it anything and besides it's make the writing know that their efforts are being watch and it's not left unnoticed

You are senior now so I think you are enjoying sending Good or bad karma but just a piece of advise , try not to abuse the system because Admin is having an eye to this.

and also I think this post have served its purpose as all your questions and concerns are already  written in the forum rules  so I guess locking this thread will be helpful to prevent spamming.

Ugh, I'm so forgetful! I can't believe I forgot, even though I have said this to many members but still while writing that post It didn't come to my mind, actually, I am spending time on two forums, which have different rules so that's why I got confused maybe. Next time I will keep it in mind. Although I am wrong about my statement directly but indirectly it helps them.

This means, if we will give karma to newbies then they will be motivated, and thus more contributions will be seen on the forum as well. Although there are great measures to tag some shitposter with various tags. But still, thanks for reminding this one, as I was totally off.

That's right, Admin really pays attention to all karma transactions that are taking place, this is different from BTT, the Karma that is given cannot be seen by who sent it, only the admin can see it. So you have to be careful when you want to give bad karma, it's better to keep giving good karma to everyone rather than giving bad karma.

Post by: EluguHcman on April 07, 2024, 07:49:21 PM
You have already stated the valid points on how karma is obtained. Although not really by how active you may be in the forum but based on the level of your constructive and and quality posts. The advantage of staying active lies with possibilities that you would learn more concerning what the forum is on for
So literally it is like the more you studies to learn is the more knowledge you acquires. So the more knowledge you acquires is a dividend of your activeness which would have you the tendencies to create helpful and quality posts hopefully of yielding karma's.

If I am not making any mistake, karma was created by the admin and when the admin see good post when moving around the forum and see any quality posts, he gave them the karma and in return the Sr. Members in the forum can also give karma and that is how the first people who where in the forum got their karmas. Though I was not at that time but when came here the admin explain how one can get karma and the advantages and the uses of karma. And the simple answer is karma can be given from Sr members accounts to a quality posts.

yups , and for my months here ? there is just a little one or 2 bad karma that  I have given but that is for someone whom I believe deserve to have this karma , and indeed that never to abuse this karma system because Admin is looking into all this very closely .
and another thing is that  we are all must be responsible for this usage because one thing or another it will help the community to grow in better tomorrow .

I'm not sure who first got their karma and which ranks had this opportunity in the beginning, because the rules at the moment are not the same even with those which were when I signed up. But I see no reason for admin to give first karma to anyone, because every Senior can give karma to others. There were totally no karma requirements on ranking up for any rank years ago, so everyone could get a Senior and give karma to others. Which karma requirement is at the moment, no one knows exactly except admin.

I don't know why are you trying to make such a complicated theory, karma is very simple! ;)

Yes. As you can read in the link to my previous post in this thread, the admin is working to implement a system that requires a minimum amount of karma (I still don't know more details) from certain ranks in order to reach the highest ones. It won't be like BTT's merit system (I know I always say that, but some users still ask the same thing) but it will help avoid spam and L.Q.P posts, since otherwise they won't be able to reach new ranks. There is no release date yet, but I don't think it will be long since the admin said "soon".

At first, I thought that karma was a standard requirement, especially for Legendary members to reach a higher rank, which is mythical, this has been a discussion ever since I teleported my account here. This makes me clarify my understanding that it is about to be implemented soon.

On the other hand, this makes me think that since the rule of allowing to convert positive karma to ALTT is back, this only means that this feature will not be used as the users will probably choose to reach a new higher rank than to exchange it to ALTT tokens.

That is a decision that each user must make. Users with more karma may decide to exchange a portion of that karma for tokens, while users with less karma may prefer to keep it. Personally, it is something I will not do, since with the points earned by creating threads/posts we can get a good amount of tokens.

I don't know the karma requirements to rank up, but I don't think they're very high, at least to begin with. We must first give the administrator time to implement this new feature and then see how it works and if it meets the parameters that the administrator has in mind.

okayyy that's a great thing, yeas I checked that post as well, and thanks for sharing it. I was hoping that karma would be added to the rank system because it would avoid spam at a great level, as newbies or spammers would not be making a lot of useless posts on the ALTT. But its an inverse proportion hahaha. like if spam from the post side decreases it will increase from the karma side. But I guess dealing with karma abuse would be easier than dealing with spam posters.

You are a moderator so it would be a plus point for you as well. I hope the karma criteria won't be so high, as getting karma is much easier here, as it doesn't require us to get 2 karma in order to give 1 as on BTT so I can assume we have to get more karma in order to rank in compared to BTT. Well, eagerly waiting for it, but I hope I will become legendary till then hahaha.

I think karma will come to your account depend on post qualities, if you have good and educative post seems not difficult your karma will increasing depend on how many meaningful or your post. the same with other forum on bitcointalk, appreciated by sending merit if you have educative or meaningful post.
First need increasing post qualities and then you will get large amount increasing karma with your account, admin have rule with karma system and need to make better post in the future in want get many karma points but the sender or karma get limitation in daily day around each 10 hours for sending it.

At first, I thought that karma was a standard requirement, especially for Legendary members to reach a higher rank, which is mythical, this has been a discussion ever since I teleported my account here. This makes me clarify my understanding that it is about to be implemented soon.

On the other hand, this makes me think that since the rule of allowing to convert positive karma to ALTT is back, this only means that this feature will not be used as the users will probably choose to reach a new higher rank than to exchange it to ALTT tokens.

That is a decision that each user must make. Users with more karma may decide to exchange a portion of that karma for tokens, while users with less karma may prefer to keep it. Personally, it is something I will not do, since with the points earned by creating threads/posts we can get a good amount of tokens.

I don't know the karma requirements to rank up, but I don't think they're very high, at least to begin with. We must first give the administrator time to implement this new feature and then see how it works and if it meets the parameters that the administrator has in mind.
Well, yeah. That will depend on the user especially if they get less karma, even I would not dare to do that if karma will be needed to increase the rank to a higher level. Much better if the points were allocated to convert for ALTT tokens, and then the karma for ranking up (once the update for karma has been implemented).

I think karma will come to your account depend on post qualities, if you have good and educative post seems not difficult your karma will increasing depend on how many meaningful or your post. the same with other forum on bitcointalk, appreciated by sending merit if you have educative or meaningful post.

Or it is easier to say that receiving karma means someone out there like your post. It can be informative, helpful, or whatever, as long as they want it and decide to send you karma, that's what it is.

I just wanted to ask, is it only the senior members in this forum that can give karma

Senuior rank and above can give karma, other ranks below cannot, you will have to be active and make posts in other for you to be able to rank up from one rank to another,

or the forum it self give karma

No, the forum does not give karma, members of the forum are the ones that gives and receive karma.

And also do they give karma to users in this forum that post vital stuffs and are always active?

When you make a quality post, then you will receive karma from someone who got touched or moved by your post.

Thanks for quoting me in this post, as I did not knew that we have the option to convert our karma to the ALTT tokens, I guess this should be spread among members as most of the members must not know it and they might convert there karma to ALTT and after the release those will talk bad about the forum as they will say we are not told about the feature although its there mistake they should have explored more but in the end they will talk bad about the forum and I would not want that.

I will spread this word in my local community thanks dear. Besides, I don't thnk there is a need to remove this feature as its a individual decisions. For example, if a person have become the jedi (which i think is the last rank of the forum) and after that all those karma would be sitting there. So that member might think to convert the extra Karmas to ALTT tokens, Or it might be possible that Admin introduced a system in which once the criteria hits, the rank will be given then it will not require us to hold them as we can sell it all. Well, let's just not assume more and wait for the final announcement.

Not every Post that deserves Karma got one and the same goes with the merit system because we may not see them because it's buried under others posts, or it's created in a section where users not much active, etc.

About the limitations, you can give as much as Karma you want to the members, the only limitation is you can't merit the same member twice before the 10 hours cooling period.

People shouldn't get this wrong on the use of karma, there is no need for one to give karma to a user who is not active, the reason for giving anyone karma is because you feels that they have made a quality post on a discussion and you wish to express your heart felt towards that, the user will not even know who gives him, except on the situation whereby someone already made a quality post in the past and was inactive for a while, then you come across such post to give karma.

Thanks to OP for creating this topic. The thing is, I just found out that only senior members and above can give karma. Initially I thought that all users here, both beginners and beginners, could send karma. I haven't read any further. But getting answers from discussion topics can sometimes be easier to remember. So simple but useful questions like this sometimes help beginners and also new members here.

That is why when you came to a new place, mostly a forum like this, you are to read the rules and ask questions in any area you are not clear with and for doing that you will understand many things in the forum. And what Op asked is in forum rules and regulations. S-karma is unlimited from Sr. Members but you have to send within 10 hours after the first one sent, and if you are sending it to the same account. But you can send to different accounts at your pleasure. But there are restrictions sending to the same account. 1 karma at a time and within 10  hours time.

Your idea is correct but in the beginning the member could have given karma from the member.  When we were members we had the ability to give karma around 2021.  But it scammers misused Karma, later admin assigned it to senior members.  A senior member status person has the power to give karma from above and now karma is not misused. Only important and active and fresh users get Karma gifts. Usually Karma is given based on the post, Karma and gift are given only if the post quality is good and contains quality information.

Correct, it is written in the rules already that only Senior members and up can give karma and it is only 1 karma and then there is a cooldown period so that it won't be abuse.

I know that we all have teleported here and the best for us is to read the rules, just saying. And just like in the other community, we can give karma to a good post although is it subjective as it depends whoever we give karma to.

Is it a member rank or newbie accounts can give + karma in the past? I never know that it is the rule in the past, it's a good decision for the admin to increase the requirement to senior member before a user can send + karma. It's prone to  karma abuse.

One more thing, can we know what is this gift that you are talking about? As a teleported user, this is new to me as I only received Karma since I started to teleport here, but no gifts 😏

Since I registered on the forum, the ability to send karma has always been from Senior Members and higher ranks, and I believe it has always been that way since the beginning of the forum. If I'm wrong someone correct me. I think the requirements, for now, are fine, but if you have any suggestions you can write a post in the appropriate subforum.

I think the gifts @Power420 is referring to is karma, he may be referring to forum tokens, which have nothing to do with karma, but I'm not sure. It is better to wait for @Power420 to visit the thread and clarify it.

Since the OP wants to know about karma and how to give karma or when to give karma, they should discuss these things. To whom he will give karma or to whom he will not give karma is entirely his own matter. If the post is constructive and another member benefits from reading that post then that member can give karma to another member. However, a member cannot give karma at will because the minimum qualification for him is to be a senior member. That is, starting from every senior member and above all members can give karma to other members.
