For some reason, I've only had 1 karma constantly ever since it started. I guess I'm just not inspiring haha. Though it is funny to watch the exaltage of TiMothee and the smiteage of Gravesmythe.

First [and YB, if you're reading this, please take note ], it didn't really get nasty until I chose to make it nasty. That's my doing. I take responsibility for that. I responded to your (boba's) first post about why you had received negative karma with a generalized comment. Unfortunately, others who read it---and even me as I reread it---see that comment as being directed toward users of this board. My comment was *intended* in the vein of "people do that kind of thing all the time; you can't really do much about it; don't let it get you down." But I can honestly see how someone (YB and Phoenix, as well as everyone else, I'm sure) would read that as meaning "the users on this board who give negative karma must be low self-esteem jackasses." So I apologize for the unintended slight to any other users. Let me clarify that not all people with low self-esteem strive to tear others down. Nor, do people who give negative karma necessarily have low self-esteem. Either of those statements would be a grossly overstated hasty generalization. I was driving at the idea that if *one* person became so obsessed with their stature in this online community that they continually smited others just to bring them down, that person would be a jackass---in the sense that they were stubbornly devoted to their course of detrimental action---and most likely a person who does that (again, on a diligent, repeated basis) would have low self-esteem. But I said it in curt and course words, and for that reason, fairly or not, my words were interpreted to mean something else. That's nobody's fault but my own. I apologize to anyone whom I have offended.

I understood what you were getting at here, no need to explain. However, you did well with your appology. I took no offense at the begining simply because this site is made for fun and I mentally keep it that way. If someone wants to get under my skin they have a long way to dig.

Confession is good for the soul, Lord Gravesmythe, so consider yourself exalted---not that you really care whether you're exalted or not, ... but let's not go there again. (I must admit, though, that I did enjoy your scapegoating post---you were really going to town on that one.)

*slaps forhead with palm of hand*
There's always one, boba....
I wasn't saying *you* were nasty or angry.
I was saying that by digging in on my position, *I*, Lord Gravesmythe (<------ The guy who's name appears over there) made it a bit nasty.

Well, it looks like all points are moot now that we've switched to Midichlorian counts.

Well I only have 3 points and that would explain why I can't levatate the remote control to my hand after sitting down.

I wonder if one will get "Anakin Skywalker" as a label if s/he gets over 20,000 good karma points

can a jedi lose midichlorians? i guess if he crosses over but, if midichlorians exist all around us anyway can some be gained or lost like valence electrons.
