Your criteria to grant +/- Karma to someone!

[Findingnemo]

I gave it to low key shills nowadays. They've been smarter by opening what seems like an interesting topic but I still see them insert something else.

I guess you aren't talking about those Bitget shill accounts.

Sometimes I gave them negative too when it's so obvious that they are just promoting the name of the exchange by creating a thread that is so out of the topic but still somehow they manage to infuse the name into the discussion.

Fortunately, there are fewer and fewer threads of this type that appear on the forum. I think the most important thing to avoid them is to act quickly, first warning and then sanctioning if necessary. In this way we avoid the threads being large and having to delete them with user opinions that may be valuable. I hope we can continue like this.

I give +karma to users that make posts that are very informative and mostly when I see a topic that relates to something I have in mind. I haven't really given -karma before. I prefer giving proper direction, just to follow up with the friendly forum for all it's users. I have not really come across those who deliberately break rules in the forum, this could be probably because I have not completely gone round the entire forum I guess.

I will say, we should also be reporting them if the reason is enough so atleast the thread will be locked if not deleted. But the report to moderator button works here different compared to Bitcointalk which maybe one of the reason not many of them reporting cause spams has to be treated with -Karma here. I do often report some but still I am hesitant about my judgement.

I treat karma as the merit version of our other forum so if the post is rich in content and very informative I'm generous in giving karma compared to the other forum you have to get 2 merits to get one so if you don't have any more and you find some post that is worth it, you have to skip it.

well if you ask me generally I give karma based on many reasons however a majority of the time it's always based on post quality. Sometimes when some members are being picked on by some other member by giving them negative karma and such a user is a quality poster  I see no reason in adding a positive Karma to counter the negative.

Nevertheless most of the karma I have given out are mostly to post that have decent quality with real-time facts backing them up and sometimes some positive moves made by some members to improve the forum.

If someone says something clever and I laugh at it I give a karma. If someone gets me to think differently about something I give a karma.

that seems simple enough but is actually what you would want to do lol we are not here to hoard karma and be selfish about it i mean if i like the post i give a positive karma no matter what the context of the post it is kind of a show of agreement even if they might not see it was you

though there is a new development in the forum where you can pay and see who gave you karma so if you are just giving positive karma for about anything and they see it then you might or should get a thank you later on

That's a pretty straightforward and simple answer.

I expect this kind of answer from members here to give an idea instead of saying "quality posts".

No user should worry if their reports are 100% compliant with ways to deal with spam, for example. No one is going to be "punished" for not thinking or having the same lines as the moderators. The important thing is to report those threads/posts that in one way or another do not comply with what we understand as normal. It may seem like what I'm saying doesn't make sense, but it does. Don't be afraid to report, just use common sense.

Yeah, i understand what you are saying because quality posts can mean something slightly different to different people. However, i will say any post i find interesting falls under quality post for me, and i am likely to give it a +karma, also any post that teaches me something new is surely getting a +karma from me.

Ohhh this... when I read a post, and I feel like thinking "oh my god, that's so true, why did I just realize it", or when someone writes in simple language but has a meaning that makes me happy with the facts, it's enough to move my hand to press karma +...
Posts that even make me really want to reply, because there may be disagreements or differences of opinion, I also often give karma +, because of the interesting points being discussed.

True, interesting ideas discussing make my self have own criteria sending positive karma, have limit sending every day around each 8 hours make me bit confusing when sending positive karma which one most interesting post have to give. Each person have difference way for giving positive karma and I don't think problem during post have interested, most useful based on our personal viewed have to sent positive karma.
By the way any one sent around 3 positive karma every day during each 8 hours only available sent one karma, usually I sent only 2 positive karma in daily day because active at forum not fully 24 hours.

What you say is incorrect. The limit on giving karma works only for the same user you give karma. So if you want to give karma for example to me for several posts you have to wait some number of hours between each karma giving. But if you want to give karma to different users you can do it at the same time, no need of waiting.

I think that should be the way to go, to begin with. I don't think the forums expect you to stay 24/7 on the forum trying to find good posts to send karma to. I have experience of being a merit source on Bitcointalk and I don't think there's a requirement since everyone is busy with their life. Making it mandatory would be a bad idea IMO, since it will just make the members feel forced.

When I see a quality post and have a touch within me that convinced me that such counts for a quality post, then I try to dish out a positive karma, but when I found no taught on a particular post, or maybe discover it to contain malicious link or content that could be or no relevance to anyone, then I try report such or dish out a negative karma base on the severity of the content on his post.
