Title: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on November 23, 2006, 11:40:00 PM
 What exactly happens with the karma?   :)  When somebody clicks smite, does the opposite of when somebody clicks exalt happen?   :)  When is it a good time to give somebody karma?   :)  Do people lose karma when they do bad things?   :)  I have a lot of questions about this whole karma thing, don't I?   :)  I think I'll quit chattering now!   ;D

 Another, absolutely pointless, silly question. The subject "Silly questions" may drive you nuts.   :o  Particularly since I have so many of them!   ;D

When you said your location was "nowhere" did you mean something along the lines of, nowhere of importance, or, Nowhere, in your comic?    :)  It could work both ways, I was just wondering!   :D

What does our account status do? I probably should have gotten it figured out by now, but I haven't!   ;D

What's an ent? When Beastling disappeared Dante said he had the ents searching for him. Are they something like those tree things that are on Lord of the Rings?

What is an acount status.   ???

how do you start a new topic?   ???  its probly obvious but im not exactly what they call computer savvy   :(

Okay, I'm gonna' start at the bottom and work my way up.

Start a new topic by clicking on "New Thread" in each sub forum.

Account status is just whether or not you've clicked the button and I've approved it.  It means almost nothing as of right now, but I can set it up so that your account has to be activated before you can post.  Don't worry about it for now.

An ent is a living tree, usually.  (Yes, that's what the tree things in LoTR were)

(I just answered this one a bit ago, I'm not repeating myself)

I mean Nowhere.  Take it how you will.

There are no silly questions.

Yes, you have a lot of questions, Faith.

People only lose Karma when someone else clicks on "Smite" (or I go into their account and change the number)

You should give people Karma any time they treat you nicely, say something nice, or share their pretty pictures with you, or any other time they do something you like.  (Or just because they're good people is a good enough reason.)  In short, give people karma whenever you feel like it.

Yes, Smite takes away one point of Karma.  Exalt gives one point of Karma.

Karma is just a display of how well liked/kind a person is.  It's mostly something the people who host this board implemented for fun, and it's stuck around.

(Note that you can only Exalt/Smite once per hour)


*pant pant pant*  That's a lot of questions.

 Oh, well thanks for answering the questions!   ;D  I think now that I've figured out what the karma points are, I may start using them more accurately.   :)  I realized I didn't know what I was doing with them after a while, though I got the over-all idea of them eventually and did give you one for letting me use your work as an avatar.   ;D  Also, since they are for fun, I think I should give you one for being patient and answering all my questions, because I do have a lot of them and they usually drive people nuts!!!   ;D  You seem to deal with them well!   ;D

I have enough brothers and sisters that I don't get bothered very easily.  Don't worry about it.

After all, I did make a category just for asking questions.  Ask away!

A sub-forum [or whatever it's called] for art?That'd be nice.
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on November 26, 2006, 08:53:00 PM
Sure.  Give me a bit, and I'll have one up.
Title: Re: Silly questions

Title: Re: Silly questions

Find a place to host it, then link it in your post.
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: spookty on November 27, 2006, 02:38:00 PM
I use Photobucket.
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on November 27, 2006, 04:20:00 PM
I tend to host most my work on my site, then link it from there.    :)

Though I'd reccomend Photobucket of ImageShack.

Hey, since I became a youngling when I got to 50 posts, what will I become when I get to 100?   :)

How about after that?   :)
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on November 29, 2006, 10:54:00 AM
I'm not really sure.  I've been tweaking them for a while, now.  I'll post them when I finish figuring that out.   :)
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on December 08, 2006, 09:55:00 PM
Well I know now, I already got to 100 posts! Should I take this as a sign that I need to not talk so much?
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on December 10, 2006, 12:32:00 PM
Nope.   Talk to your heart's content.

If you ever say too much, I'll just moderate it, anyway.    :D

EDIT:   Since you're there now, anyway;  is there any particular title you think would make more sense than "Center".  That's actually just the placeholder.  I need something else there, really.
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on December 13, 2006, 10:10:00 PM
Hmm... I'll think on it and if I come up with something I'll be sure to tell you.

And I'll continue talking like crazy when I feel like it since nobody seems to mind.   ;D
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on December 16, 2006, 09:13:00 AM
Good.  People talking like crazies is a good thing, as long as they have something to say.
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on December 16, 2006, 09:00:00 PM
Oh I have plenty to say, I should just start trying to think before I say something!   :D
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on December 17, 2006, 04:50:00 PM
That'd probably be a good move.
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on December 19, 2006, 05:17:00 PM
Probably.   ;D

Hey, Dragyn, did you notice you've got 13 karma pionts?
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on December 19, 2006, 05:47:00 PM
You have 11.  (and yes, I did.)

Nope

...whatever.
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on January 13, 2007, 03:11:00 PM
*Laugh*   :D

Pointless conversation - though sometimes fun, always pointless, the reason for it's name.
Title: Re: Silly questions

indeed...
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on January 14, 2007, 11:32:00 PM
You say that a lot.   :D

Um, I believe I've asked this before, but I don't remember an answere... where are Dante and Demon? Is the place they're at somewhere in The Middle of Nohwere, or somwhere entirely different?
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on January 15, 2007, 03:49:00 PM
There was no answer, really.

I just said it'd be explained later.
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on January 15, 2007, 06:52:00 PM
Oh, hehe... I'll wait and find out.   :)
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on March 22, 2007, 09:08:00 PM
Is anyone else sleepy??......    :o  *Yawn.*   :o

And it's not even 12:00, yet...

*Snore... snore... snore...*

What - whoa! I'm awake!!!
Or maybe I'm not....

*Snore... snore... snore...*
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on March 23, 2007, 04:39:00 AM
I'm not sleepy at all...it's 7:30 in the morning.    :D
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on March 23, 2007, 11:18:00 AM
I don't know why I was so sleepy.... I usually stay up until - well, maybe 1:00 or later...   ::)
But then, it seems that I get sleepier earlier the night after my last day of school of the week... maybe it's because I stay up too late and wake up too early...   :P

Wait, you're saying 7:30 - and the forum's saying 6:30.... why is that?
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Dragyn on March 27, 2007, 09:46:00 AM
Probably just some setting somewhere on one of our computers.  The clocks don't quite agree, but it won't really do much.
Title: Re: Silly questions
Post by: Faith on March 27, 2007, 12:00:00 PM
You're probably right.    ;D
