Heads Up: Karma System Revamp!

Can't wait for Todd's next update:

"Based on user feedback, we've incorporated AI technology to award a 5x point bonus every time it detects a series of posts along the following lines:


'Did you hear? <Longstanding regional craft or foreign brewery> is <discontinuing/limiting distribution of/changing> <beer that I loved when I first got into craft beer>! Man, this is terrible! Everyone on here agrees that it's great!

(Several posts later)

You know, now that I think about it, I haven't even thought about buying <beer that I loved when I first got into craft beer> in <number> years - just so many options these days. Still through, I wish that <beer that I loved when I first got into craft beer> or even any good example of <style that was seemingly ubiquitous in the 90s, but hasn't had a sales increase in a decade>. It's a shame.'

Thanks for your patience."

 

As long as we get numbers, I'm ok. Badges isn't the same thing.

Hell, I'm not even dependent on becoming Poo-Bah!

 

So, the Untappd Method: a new badge every 5 of X.

 

It would also be helpful to have our profile page provide a list of our top achievements in each category and what the next level is. Or if that needs to wait for the forum upgrade, having the help page that lists all possible achievements sorted by achievement instead of point value would work too.

 

Spot On!

 

Am I crazy or did points dissappear entirely for me?

 

The most charming with all of the system is that the number gradually increases, after the revamp is settled. It's like the number of posts in another forum I used to participate in more. Karma is a great invention, because you have the forum posts with their likes, and the beer list, with "accessories". Gives one sense of belonging. But, as I said earlier, hopefully never more than 20% of the feeling...

 

Face it. They're gone. You're never getting them back.

Much wailing and gnashing of teeth ensues.

 

Uh oh,, this is getting serious now if we are comparing to

mathew and revelations

 

Karma is gone, gone, gone
Let's have a beer, beer, beer
Karma is gone, real gone!

 

Well we all shine on,
Like the moon and the stars and the sun,
On and on, and on and on.

 

We remember the good times
Beer and beer like Christmas
Karma was, was like a leaving bus

 

"He drinks a Lager drink, he drinks a Cider drink
He sings the songs that remind him of the good times
He sings the songs that remind him of the better times"

And drinks that Lager while singing!!

Cheers!

 

Karma, what is that?

Good night!
