I've said once before that karma here is totally reverse from what it should be. You , Macro, should have a million karma for your knowledge of the game and the advise you give people. I know elite moderator you can probably set your karma to whatever you wish but you should have it despite that.
On the contrary those that spend all day talkin' shit on chat have the most karma. People who probably don't know hrt from hst. Silly in my opinion , but the problem is that those in chat have the ability to bomb member who ARE involved in training , supplementation, or medical issues. One person said that karma is an indicator of popularity. This is total nonsense. Those who have little karma want to be hit by those who do have alot of karma in order to increase thier own. Those who do have alot are very picky and choosy who they hit. I'm at the point of thinking karma should be eliminated and just having bombs for stupidity.
Atleast karma should have a "fudge factor" where as if you BS on chat you only get 1/10 the karma of training or steroid forums. This is elite fitness not elite BS , but you couldn't tell by looking at peoples karma. I think there should also be a limit to how many posts a person can give karma on from some specific boards. That would really alleviate people just sitting on chat and not promoting fitness related issues.
