so! what is this karma thing? and this larvae thing, i went from abductee to larvae, hmmm, interesting???
Karma is given out by mods. If they like your post (or you in general), they'll up you a point or two. Larvae, Abductee, Xenomorph, etc. is your rank. The more you post, the higher your rank. Currently, I think that Xenomorph is the highest non-mod rank. ---------------------------- And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. ~ Rev. 21:4
What she said. . If you search through some older messages, you'll find a 3 page thread on it... Let me make it simpler... http://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/Forum6/HTML/000025.html ...and yes, those are user ranks. There are 12-15 of them, I forget how many I made at last check. Xenomorph is not the highest non-moderator level! It's a mystery! Custom user ranks are available upon request if you wish to have one. However, it will stick and not change while you post more and more. Hope that covers it. . ---------------------------- Alien - Administrator / Owner ["Everything was true. God was an alien.

From my understanding, even though you've probably already realised it, karma is Alien Soup's answer to <horrific forum site's name censored>'s kudos.
::sigh:: What I *meant* was that *currently* Xenomorph is the highest non-mod rank. So far, I think that I'm the only non-mod to hit 1,000+, so no non-mod has a higher rank than me. I didn't mean it was the highest attainable non-mod rank. Make sense now? ---------------------------- And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. ~ Rev. 21:4 <font color="#000000">[Edited by mthrlangl on October 11, 2000 (edited 1 time)]</font>

I was just stating it during my reply (leading up to how the last one or two above you is a mystery). I didn't think you were vague, you said it just fine. . Someone fell out of their bed this morning and must have bumped their head, and I'm not naming any names, but her name starts with mthrlangl. . ---------------------------- Alien - Administrator / Owner ["Everything was true.
