Welcome! I gave you some to start! LIke said above read ALL the stickied threads and spend some time browsing the forums to see what people do and don't post. Do that and you will be better off than half the members on hear.

Right below a users username there is a number. Scroll over that number and adjust karma!

Contribute media and get it upvoted. The more people see your media, the better you'll score.

Ummm, this may actually have a detrimental effect on your karma unless the thread you make is particularly significant. Although if your making a tonne of threads on regular basis there's a good chance you'll start to run out of original thread ideas and this will start to irritate other members, who as a result maybe start giving you lower ratings.

One great way to get Karma is by sharing news articles from other ski sites. We work a little like reddit/facebook here that our news consists of lots of things from elsewhere.

So if you're reading Unofficial, TGR, Powder, Freeskier, etc. and you see something that everyone here might like, just copy the link, hit 'upload' - paste that bitch in there, click post and you're good to go.

If you get upvotes, views and such you'll rack up the karmaz in nothing flat.

Yeah at one point we had to assign all the old news articles to someone (literally like 10 years worth) and that boosted the fuck out of his Karma. I lost my top spot and was sad. :(

Well you give karma every time you upvote someone... but what you're right about is that there isn't the ability to specifically give them member karma in there.

We're actually going to simplify the karma system so it is tied to the way you vote on other members, so for right now since we're retiring that part of it we left it out of the app.
