Hrm. This is a bothersome trend... people posting asking for karma. The Karma system is designed to be a reward system to users by other users for being a helpful/nice/pleasing member of the community. It isn't a status thing but more of a 'thanks' thing. I'm going to talk with Zoomba when he gets back amount making a new forum rule against Karma Begging. I feel it defeats the purpose of the system.
My point was that I have been helping around and stuff... and no one has been giving me Karma...I didn't mean any harm by it... just trying to lighten things up...
it should be a rule that if you don't like a thread you should just ignore it... (I do mean that with the utmost respect of course)
I don't think it's that bothersome a trend to ask for how to get more karma points.
Someone is asking how to receive more karma points (read the subtitle of his post, he's asking how to get some), it shows that maybe there isn't alot of documentation available to users to find out how to get more karma or if there is alot of information, it isn't that easy to find possibly. A new karma system is implemented and some people are asking about it - I think it's probably a good thing, it shows users are interested in the new developments on this site and want some type of involvement. I personally don't think he was begging, it was a legitimate post from my point of view and he wasn't bashing anyone or arguing, it was a light hearted, fun type of question to ask in a unique way.
When someone asks a question and other people offer to help with information, that is good karma. Not just on on this site but also life in general. Karma is a very real thing to me, so be happy, be good to yourself and be good to others, what goes around does comes around.
Have a great day!
Thank you for standing up for me...

Remember we're only on here to have fun...
