This post of you has given me some trouble. I went at the start of this thread and read through it, fast of course. It marks the story of this site. I saw members that I see around now, cheering themselves for their first 100 posts. Great.They are the same, although their post count has grown, sometimes prodigiously sometimes no. same thing for karma. Of course with the growth the units of comparison have changed. Comparison of what. More posts more brain? More posts more heart? More karma more appreciation? In the case of recluse yes. And in his case also more brain and more heart. Why? I use my judgement, and for me it is yes. Tom calls this bragging power and I saw the word bragging said way back. Great. Let us brag. Not every body is as worthy as recluse. Sure and this does not change anything.
It's fun. I like it, it's joyful. I use my judgment. If I want to congratulate I do. If I am in hurry, I jump on wagons. Often I "pay" karma for the ride, and we all have fun. I like dealing in karma. Makes the cookies change faster. And I like giving "noble" karma, it warms the heart. And i like posting, frivolous silly posts, and posts that I had to think about and work to make them hopefully meaningful. The silly one get more recognition and I realize that I am more a jester than a serious poster. This also is fun. It is a virtual word, and as Ishmael says it is not serious.
This thread is possibly the funniest of all the lounge, it is the first I check when I enter the lounge, well maybe after I checked the Italian. There are no fights. Again it's fun.
Cheer up old friend, rejoice for the bad start of Italy and let's have fun.
