The only karma that means anything is "jungle karma"! The only karma I pay attention too, is the karma on My Name is Earl, love that show.

There is one other way to get negative karma that y'all forgot about.

One simply has to utter the words "Go Utes!" and have a red avatar and wham bam thank you ma'am, your magical karma will have great things happen to it.

How the hell is everyone anyway? I can't wait for this next year's ball. Both teams are going to kick some serious butt, and I'm excited to see things play out for both our programs. You guys are the top dog and the team to beat.

This has been fun. I'll have to stop back by more often. LOL. Later y'all!!

Sorry ... I had to post one more time, because that last post was #666 for me. I don't want my devil red showing too much!!

HEY! You're back. Still wonder why.

Or we could leave Karma on for posters until they get to 100 posts. At that point, Karma is replaced by a brand that cannot be removed.

For example:

-400 and below GD (Great Disturber)
-300 to -399 TE (Troll Extraordinaire)
-200 to -299 MT (Master Troll)
-100 to -200 JT (Journeyman Troll)
-25 to -99 AT (Apprentice Troll)
-24 to +25 RMCD (Reasonable Minds Can Differ)
+26 to +50 BGO (Bluegoggled Optimist)
+50 and up SSI (Somewhat Silenced Insider)

I am sure someone more creative than me can come up with better brands.

Oh, and to the artist formerly known as ETOYTX, just remember this simple phrase:

-Due Process is about Rights (Fundamental--yes or no, and what scrutiny attaches)
-Equal Protection is about People. (Suspect Class--yes or no, and what scrutiny attaches).

I disagree. To me a few here and there is nothing. But McGregor and Cruiser have done this audience much service, and having some way to show extra appreciation has been a good thing. Of course, some have not done such wonders for us, and their karma has shown it.

Of course, logical and informative posts are welcome, especially with good evidence to back it up. As long as one is not married to the emotional up or down, it is still a way to recognize good posts.
