The feature is very nice. It got great feedback from people in our team. Their points for improvement were:

1. It is hard to see the karma bars that are yellow and red. I'd suggest making them all green.
2. The black/grey strip is distracting and looks un-pretty. I'd suggest making the green bars darker, on a transparent background.
3. When you hover over the icon the large view does not say anything about the karma, it should.

Great stuff, it's going to be useful IMO especially when we can start to filter comments by karma.

Dears, I respect your free choice, but the word karma is a bit sensitive issue for some including me. WHen you substitute a meaning into your new meaning - can cause some distortion. Indeed karma is a negative subject - means it could be negative or null. Same time you use some notions as guru and avatar. It is like to call an item - Apostol or Pope or Bible. As far as your karma rises you better be anything then guru. These words became international notions describing very important issues. So look deeper into the notions you use. If someone will start to absorb a notion not from its origin but from web lingua - this will cause a mess in their vacabulary when they will face the real meanings. If you experience shortage in terms - feel free to ask my help. It will be a pleasure for me. We actually do not want someone to think that God is a button, karma is a measure of activity rising with the extent of activity, and Bible is a say contact information, dont we? Best regards Victor

Dears, could not refrain to provide you with the definition of karma to make your choise easier. Karma now - is an action which violate someone free will. Very soon the definition will be - the word, thought or action motivated else but by the Love.You see the difference. BR Victor

The word "karma", "guru" and others are just good. They are used with success on different forums. The terms are familiar to most Internet users. Why should we name it differently?

Broz, try to imagine when some important words for you - what are they? - used in opposite meaning. Say some site in another culture will name a picture with user's foto - Jesus. Or stop list of rule violators - Bible. Then you will see that the original meaning distorted and diluted. We have different notions in different cultures globally - no need to chose one which some heard of but never grasped a meaning but would like to use the combination of sounds. Given the wiki is global - you actually act not very wise. It ofcourse up to you - but I regret on your choice.

Please calm down. The world "bible" is used in many senses, like "The bible of something" — meaning: the full book covering some topic. In can be even "The bible of stealing".

It's not our problem that you have special feeling to one of the generic words. Also note, that there is good and bad Karma in religion.

And please have more distance. No one but you criticized the chosen word from its beginning on Wikidot. And it's been months!
