What actions can we promote that will bring back the old AO?

[GT]

A few ides,

1. add a karma system. If you see a person with a good post, give them some karma. Karma levels give you acceses to certian forums.

your turn...

Trying to look into this... being discussed right now in mod forum. The Karma system works out well, because we don't look like buttholes by saying who can and can't be in (even if we are making good decisions) - basically up to AO users to determine that.

There are alot of personal vendetta's on AO though, dont you think the system could be abused?

EDIT: I guess it could only be abused if there was a bad karma option or something

Yeah... which is why the mods should be able to adjust Karma to compensate.

Only for exceptional cases...

I like the idea of karma too. You should be able to maybe only b/s/t with good karma

Thats actually a great idea. A kind of feedback system. If you have crappy feedback/karma you souldn't be allowed to b/s/t untill your karma goes up

Don't have negative Karma. It's unneed. With just regular Karma, it means that if you think someones post was stupid and ignorant, you do just that...you ignore there post(and Karma). If someone makes a good post and it warrants good Karma....no one can take Karma away from them to screw them over. Only the people who make exceptional posts or just happen to be good people and earn Karma get in.

sounds good.

well, what about people who will feel left out? the people we dont really want in the karma forum, but give eachother karma for no reason? i forsee this happening, and everyone giving everyone else karma for no reason other than they are friends


ex.


postwhore A omgzorz!!!!!!


post whore b gives A karma, because they are friends




you know? thats all im worried about. sorry to be negative, i love the idea, and i hope that people feel i contribute enough to recieve karma, and i am longing for the days of old once again. i think its an amazing idea, and if i had the option id give gt karma, or eprops or what ever for comming up with the idea. Rock on

[Kevmaster]

yeah, i mean, if everyone in a group of twenty friends on AO gave everyone good karma....it kinda washes away the value of iut.

i say ke AO the same...everything open to everyone.


also...get RID of post count (both in the member list and under your handle)

yeah, do post count PBN style.

[Teamslayer76]

No...

I really think both of these idea wouldnt work. Some people are very knowledge able and don't post alot and could help all of us. Also the Karma thing could just get scammed and people would go crazy. And there are some people who really really dislike each other. But I like eveyone here, even if I don't know you... :)

[teufelhunden]

How about banning the 5 idiots who cause, directly or indirectly, the turmoil that's making AO turn to crap?
