Hey folks!
As the forum has grown larger and, admittedly, a bit unruly, it seems high time to help people know who our best contributors are.Many of you will no doubt be familiar with the Karma feature found on many forums these days, and will be happy to see its implementation here on Silk Road Forums.
For those of you who don't know what it is, you now have the ability to 'Thank' someone for a post should you find it particularly informative, well written, and all around helpful. You also now have the ability to 'discourage' someone should you find their behavior inappropriate. All of this translates into a Karma Rating, seen beneath the avatar on your post. If someone has a particularly high karma rating, you know they are helpful, more likely to be a trustworthy member to ask help from, or to take advice from. On the other hand if they have a negative karma scoring, you know not to take much stock in their advice!
The amount of positive / negative karma you can give is very limited, so use it wisely! Thank you guys for continuing to make this a shining community, hopefully, this will help shine a light on some of our wonderful members. Only members with over 100 post can distribute karma, and only one point every 3 days.
Lots of love,
DigitalAlch
