Karma Points
The Proboards website allows us to use Karma Points. What are they for?
Honestly they're nothing totally special (as far as i can figure), however get caught doing something good and staff will hand out Karma Points to members who contribute to the forum. The number of points given to a member will be determined by the level of contribution (though numbers/levels are subject to change as we experiment with it).
Staff will try to keep up with distributing Karma Points, however If you feel we've missed something, You may request/redeem any karma points you feel you have earned in this thread. Staff will determine if karma points should be given.
Members may also nominate Karma Points for other members here. State who and Why you feel they deserve Karma Points.
Warning Level Points
Some sites use the terms "ticks" or "strikes", no matter the term you're familiar with or prefer, they will be given out to those who break rules and cause trouble, unnecessary drama and the like.
Karma points will be taken away equal to strikes given.
Owner/Group Founder reserves the right/ability to by-pass strike levels and suspend or take other action as felt needed.
