It is juvenile. I am at -4 but haven't posted for 2 weeks. On behalf of all accused gay firefighters, I object to the Karma ratings. According to the definition of Karma, it will come back and bite you in the butt. All I wanted was to be one of the cool kids. I lose, bring your own ball, I am going home.

Who is lowest now? And highest?
I think I hold the record for lowest at -13, folks don't like to hear that science, not man, decides when your life began I guess.

I'm actually one who knows I've hit a nerve with my logic and reason when I start getting "smites". When I get an emotional reaction in response to a logical argument I know I'm on target with the message.
PS, you must be slipping. Now you are down to -8. Can't let the useful idiots win.

I'll be talking to my web developer on Monday about it. Thank you for your comments.

Saw a car crumpled on a utility pole this morning on CR 65 on way to IDPA match around 8 AM. No matter how much faster, better driving and stopping they make automobiles, the distracted driver is always the weak link. Reaction time for distracted driver is measured in damage done, not time.
As I said yesterday, and Monday hasn't arrived yet:

I'm sorry, but not everyone works through the weekend like I do. And sometimes life happens, like deaths in the family. Please be patient. Thank you.

I am guessing here, but perhaps it is previous rather than current posts someone is reading that is affecting karma even though you haven't been here? I don't read everything so I really don't know. Next time I come I will try to remember to give a + since it means so much to you.

I bumped Paca and MG up many times too, its a losing battle. Somebody has lots of time to play games on here. Silly really.
SC, if you keep the Karma just make it for + positive only. Or take away the anonymity of it.
You're slackin. I post 4 times. One question, 2 offers of help, and a comment about a short summer. And my Karma drops another negative.
Yeah, it's working just fine. Good Luck SC. I wish you the best with your new format.
