Wow, you guys are fast! :) That was a bug that lasted about 5 minutes as I was adding the "Undo" feature. Don't worry about it, you can ignore it (try now, it should work).

Speaking of which, you can now UNDO any Karma you give (positive or negative), so don't worry if you make any mistakes or the other person proves your initial impressions wrong.

@Andres: I love this idea, but I had a problem with, when I gave karma to one person who is in my favorites and then tried to give a karma to my friend in my favorites, a message came back to me saying that I was trying to alter the flow of karma And the site is going to be watching me. I must say I did not like that. there is no words that say you can only give one karma a day. If there is please someone point them out to me. My friend deserves positive karma as much as my love does.

It was a short-lived bug that's been fixed. That message is only intended for users who try to manipulate the Karma system by giving Karma to themselves or to someone that hasn't actually contacted them. Please try now.

Also, to be clear folks, there is NO limit on the amount of Karma you can give per day, but you can only give Karma once to each individual user.

Is there a way to check on our own karma score?

No, not at this time. The idea is to keep things purposefully nebulous to keep the system from getting gamed. That's not to say it won't be possible in the future, but for now the purpose of the Karma system is purely to weed out serial offenders who have a problem being respectful to others, and one doesn't really need to know their score in order to avoid getting labeled. They just need to be friendly and respectful. I want to see how the votes unfold before making any changes to it so I can have a better understanding of how users are responding to the new system in order to help it evolve smoother.
