Title: What...?
Post by: ShadowStep on January 22, 2007, 04:48:37 PM: Im sure this is answered somewhere but im new and I coudn't find it ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€š :sniffle:... Umm... I can pretty much guess what the + and - 's are on Karma, but how do you get them, what do they do, and what are the little blue and yellow orb things under you'r name...? Sorry, I know this is explained somewhere, but I coudn't find it... ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€š :'(

The orby things: Red means people are admins, blue, global mods, green mods. Yellow is a general user and indicates your post based member group level.

Admins and mods are set to 5 orbs, whereas normal members increase by 1 per membergroup until they reach 10, where they don't get any more. It's an indicator of activity, nothing else.

Told ya lil bro...and yes, the number of orbs mean very little, karma is how other people react to ya, so the little PLUS sign is a good thing

Post by: crustybread5 on January 23, 2007, 09:06:56 PM: Yes if you must, but PM it to a Mod/Gmod/Admin, so it doesn't start arguments.
