Journal Journal: Bloody Hell

They will give mod points to anybody. Just got 5 and my karma's only good. WTF?

Still waiting on Jamie to unbork the account. Past performance suggests the next 24 hours.

Journal Journal: Relationship change

This is a message for the two peeps who recently friended me. This account is just a sockpuppet I'm using while administration unborks my main account, which is here. That's where all the action is, or at least will be in a few days, so you may want to readjust your pointers.

Journal Journal: How to end the Iraq war

Sly has the answer:

Without a doubt it is one of my own. I appear in a dream sequence wearing diapers in STOP OR MY MOM WILL SHOOT. It makes me want to lower myself into a wood chipper headfirst every time I see it. God...if I could take every print of that movie and airdrop it across Iraq, the war would be over! People would run screaming into the streets begging to surrender saying "No more, no more, this is too inhumane!!"

Journal Journal: InfoDump - Karma 2

Did a little research, and came up with the following:

New accounts start at +1. Garner enough upmods, and karma bonus kicks in, making the default score for a fresh post +2. How many upmods will it take though?

Our first test case shows that the account received +2 status after 48 upmods and 2 downmods, for a total of 46. However, 9 of those mods were +1 funny, which do not impart karma, for a new total of 37.

Further, since archived comments do not detail mod breakdown, several upmodded posts may contain +1 funny moderations, hidden under other mods.

Still, at this point, I think it's safe to say that you need approximately 35 upmods to go from start to karma bonus. I'll do another account later on in the week and see what the comparison is.
