i don't consider my "karma" rating as "a badge of honor",

no matter whether it's positive or negative, small or large.

i don't consider it at all, except as a popularity measure,

and i don't particularly care if i'm popular or not, thanks.

when integrity is important to you, popularity can't be...

the _real_ karma is out there in the universe, and i feel

supremely confident that it feeds back to me positively...

i've led a blessed life.

Well, that would mean more coding hours, and those can be expensive. Maybe one day.

also, don't forget my earlier suggestion to make the edit-field where people compose their comments _wider_

Good suggestion, we'll look into this.

interesting. i want to see how this code change impacts the boards in general...

i could extend the game, too, but there's little point. you win. i'll go away.

i'll just finish up a few threads, and be gone.

but an _outright_ banning would've been less cowardly...

The problem is someone nicely mentioned having an eye sight issue and your posts with their strange formatting were a problem. You did refuse to accommodate this. That in my opinion was not nice. But, if you feel it's not OK to play by the rules of being polite, then so be it.
