I think it should be allowed, then this site could get even more like Facebook.

Imagine if we turned it on? You could guarantee that there'd be hissy-fits before long.

More tempted to enable the 'buddy lists' and watch the complaints about the TEF being too cliquey

We'll I'm anti the idea.
The whole liking and disliking of someone's view at the click of a button is a cop out to debate. People will like and dislike a comment based on the individual making it.
We've all seen the rough ride new commenters get on here as it is. This won't help in my opinion.

I think the karma system is designed more as way to say thanks for being helpful or not. So if 4D had a question on whether he should buy a soft or medium bristle toothbrush and you gave him helpful advice, he could give you karma.

It's not that type of forum so I don't see the point. In fact we should probably have a rep system for being the biggest cunt.

From the Simple Machines (software that runs the forum) manual. No point turning it on because no one would have a positive number, least of all me :)


Karma

Karma is an optional feature that shows the popularity of members. Administrators can enable this feature from the Core Features section. When members are allowed, they can applaud or smite a member to raise or lower that member's karma.

    Karma mode - This option is to select how the karma feature will be used in the forum:
        Disable Karma - Disables the use of this feature.
        Enable Karma Total - Makes SMF show only the total of points received.
        Enable Karma Positive/Negative - Shows both the positive and negative points for each user.
    Set the minimum posts needed to modify karma - Administrators can set a minimum number of posts that a user must have before they can raise or lower someone's karma.
    Set wait time in hours - This specifies how long (in hours) users have to wait between consecutive karma actions on the same person.
    Restrict administrators to wait time - This specifies whether forum administrators are restricted by the wait time (see the previous option).
    Karma label - Here administrators can define the label that is shown for the karma field in the profile and posts (default karma:).
    Karma applaud label - The text that appears in the link to increase the karma of a user (default [applaud]). If you leave this field blank, the applaud link will be hidden.
    Karma smite label - The text that appears in the link to decrease the karma of a user (default [smite]). If you leave this field blank, the smite link will be hidden.

 There'd be more smiting, than in the Torah (1st 5 books of the Old Testament)
