haha ok,
karma is what you give/take to people for doing nice/bad things. When you hover over their karma, there is a plus and a minus

As for other things, don't repost haha nobody likes that. The search bar sucks, so I always go to google and type what I want to write about and then type newschoolers after and it shows me.

Newschoolers is my favorite website of all time and i haven't even been on it a year.

ALSO: read the stickys at the top of each thread

im going to give you karma because im in a good mood, but normally making a thread saying give me karma will result in you losing karma. Next time use reverse psychology and make a thread saying please take away my karma. Then you will see that shit skyrocket.

Remember also that Karma is about more than just getting Karma from member to member. When someone gives you Karma, that contributes to your Karma Xchange. This affects your overall Karma, but it isn't the only factor.

Contributing videos, photos, news and starting quality conversation is what really makes a big difference. You're scored on basically everything here, how much you contribute, how many people look at your stuff, what ratings you get, how many ratings you give, writing reviews.... all of it matters.

So in general, just be a really awesome and contributing member to the site. That will get you way more karma than absolutely anything else.

We should all really just be impressed and thankful that someone with 16 posts managed to find Site Discussion before posting in NSG.
