There is so much new, I'm sure you're lost and confused. Ask away, I'll do my best to answer here.

KARMA EXPLAINED
Points distribution is based on contribution with different modifiers.
Even if you don't like it, this was a much needed change, karma circlejerking and whoring for promos was a problem with the previous setup. A lot of high level badges were earned "illegally".

Users were granted when karma was being recalculated and distributed:

  • 1 Comment karma for every 10 comments.
  • 1 Review karma for 5 reviews.
  • 1 Pic karma for 5 pics.
  • 1 Forum karma for 5 forum posts.
  • 1 Group karma for 5 group posts.
  • 1 Karma for 1 cycle log.
  • 1 karma for 10 news posts.

Since launch, new rules are in effect:

  • 1 Karma when post or comment is up/down voted.
  • 1 Review Karma when a Review is submitted.
  • 1 Pic Karma when pic is submitted.
  • 1 Forum Kama when forum post is submitted.
  • 1 Cycle Karma for a cycle submitted.
  • 1 News Karma for submitted news.

All 3 reviews had baseline and or blood work numbers to show effects of the used compounds. They were written into the body of the reviews not as attachments.

However I went down to 0 karma from 7 :(

I guess we need to be patient.

Will the karma levels still be graded BFG? Such as LVL1, ADV, EXP and so on ....

I know we have all lost karma, but just wanted to make a note mine was 1294 before Smile

BFG's picture

LVL1, ADV, EXP and so on are still in the system, but currently not shown. I'll have those badges up soon.

I lost way more than that but we all know each other. That’s the important thing.

See my post above for explanation how has karma been recalculated and redistributed.

It's so weird, the old timers are gonna have a lot of issues migrating to this new set-up.

At least on my phone I liked the old site better but this isn't too bad. Would've been cool though if I could still see profile pictures in threads as that was how I identified a lot of people. Also went down from 91 to 32 karma there any reason for that happening?

Right bro? Now it just reminds me of all the other forums I never liked and felt like I couldn’t navigate well.

But now you have cute emojis

Roman124's picture

I’d like to think with a few days of navigating through it will become familiar. I’m going to give it a couple days before I form an opinion.

Definitely feel what your saying Switch.

All of my messages are missing, is this still being worked on?

BFG's picture

We had a warning displayed in red bold font for a couple days. Messages have not been migrated to the new system.

olylifter00's picture

Yikes, I’m an idiot. Saw that red line but failed to read it. Thanks for answering!

Gh0st's picture

I guess my first question is Why? This is terrible :(

Also, lost a bunch of karma?

BFG's picture

Why?
well users wanted smileys, so started adding smileys functionality some years ago, and things got a little out of hand. Mosking

How karma did you have before?

Makwa's picture

How do we do smileys now?

Gh0st's picture

I was over 4K+ now it looks like 1K+

Makwa's picture

Frustrated I can't figure out how to do smileys.

blackjack115's picture

Karma system must be messed up, in the minutes between our post and now it went down more.

IronMind's picture

We just don't like you lol jk

BFG's picture

You still have 7 reviews... but reviews are groupped per source.
You wrote 7 reviews for 4 sources.

Click your user icon top right, click my profile

AA meat's picture

Is it possible to get in touch with an admin? I tried sending you a DM, but it doesn't allow sending since we aren't friends (the contact page is giving me a 404).

Serrajitsu0876's picture

Mo if you click your avatar on the top right a pop up will show up. You’ll see user rules, src rules, log out and my profile. Click my profile. I’m on a phone so idk if the desktop version is different.
