???'s about mod action and KarmaFollow

Hello.
For karma, I'm just confused about the whole system and I haven't found an explanation to it anywhere. If there is such a page, I'd appreciate it if I could have the link. :)

And for moderators, or Admins. I don't know which. Do you people actually ban members? Or give warnings or such? I know of a few that I regularly see in disputes on threads, one being most recent and still active. I just wondered if such things were controlled or monitored.

Thanks, keep up the good work on these great forums!

And for moderators, or Admins. I don't know which.
Same thing really

Do you people actually ban members?
Occasionally, usually for spamming, or things like that

Or give warnings or such?
Yes, depending on what is being done. usually only for Karma camping, sockpuppetry, thins like that.

I know of a few that I regularly see in disputes on threads, one being most recent and still active.
disagreements we usually only loosly moderate, and the level really depends on which part of the forum you are in. something that will fly in the asylum wouldn't be allowed in one of the WoW server forums

If you don't mind my asking, how is overall karma calculated?

highRfrequenC is indeed correct. but allow me to expand a bit on that. When you post, what we admins see is this:

1605 posts
Score: Good [3.55]
detlef: 3.55
detlef: 3.55

But lets say a few people come along and rate you, like so:

1605 posts
Score: Good [3.62]
detlef: 3.55
detlef: 3.55
Kaolian: 6.00
Kaolian: 4.00
Kaolian: 1.00

note that your karma for that post is now 3.62. Your overall base karma, or average of all your posts, is still 3.55 however, since that wasn't enough to move you one way or the other on your total average. If you post again immidiatly after that, you will have another post with again two 3.55 rateings.

Don't worry about that 1.00. I hit you with 3 extra 6.00's to even it out.
