An interesting question.

Based on my experiment just now (of trying to give you 500 points), you only gave 12. Otherwise you'd now have 2000+ Karma, while you actually only have a little less than 1700.

10 is the "magic" starting number. The number will go up as people give you more -- so you should shortly have 20 (or more) points. If you click on the "User CP" (User Control Panel) in the dark blue band towards the top of the page, you'll see who has given you Karma, and the little remarks they may have left with it.

There is a quirk about only being able to give even numbers of points, so you'll only ever have an even number of Karma points; if that is an issue, as one of the moderators here would say, Get over it.

For what it's worth, I'd say you are every bit as creepy as me! We're just creepy in different ways, that's all. You are going for the serial killer hitch-hiker look while I'm going for the Spawn of Satan look. We just serve different markets. It's all good. . . er, creepy.

I'm learning that questions about karma, invariably generate Karma! If we could just figure out how to turn that into cash, we could solve the national debt crisis!
