Grogs & Lashes; all you ever wanted to know but were too afraid to ask.

[starcrest]

actually karma is what ran over your dogma

[Coastal Cruiser]

I had  Karma one time. It was made by Volxswagun. ;)

[s/v Faith]

Under the 'user name' there are the words 'Aplaud' and 'smite'.  Applaud adds Karma, Smite causes your computer to burst into flames....  ;D

Merged ' Re: How can you tell why I got -2 online Karma' and 'What is Karma?' into one thread.......

  Hope that is not to hard on my karma....  ;D

Please note that the "Karma" system has been changed. It is now a "kARRR-ma", and instead of giving someone "applause" or a "smite", you now give them either "Grog" or a "Lash".

Enjoy. :) 8)

Hey all,
When I click on the grog link under a member's name, I get a php error.
Parse error: parse error, unexpected '}' in /home/sailfar/public_html/forum/Sources/Karma.php on line 384

Can someone 1) Explain whether we are allowed to offer grog?
2) How can we get the error fixed?

Elizabeth-

I think the grog dispenser has been broken for a couple of weeks now.

[CapnK]

Cubethmonkey -

I broke it. It's all my fault.

::)  :o  :(

I was trying an upgrade a couple of weeks ago, and it went bad, and I didn't have time that night to go back and figure out why and do it right, and I have been buried under (paying) boat work since then. However -

The End is Near.

The last of my boatwork is done on Monday (I think), so after that I will get the software fixed and upgraded properly, and (Yes, Connie), we'll be starting the sailFar blog part of the site.

The blog is something that we played with a bit last year, but which fell to the wayside. I should have it available around the middle of the month.

[CapnK]

PS - So, if you can remember your Grogs for a few more days, then you'll be able to give them to the people what deserved 'em.  ;)

(Sorry for the disassociated thinking, there've been long days this week... :) )

:o wayside  ???
I thought it fell overboard  :)

What is the karrr-ma thing for, I now tested positive, what makes it negative?

[AdriftAtSea]

Grogs add positive numbers, lashes add negative numbers... :)

[captain cajun]

AdriftAtSea,  old and show, uhh?  Sorry still don't know.  Could you please type slower...and say it another way.  mind is lost in a fog.  thanks

[AdriftAtSea]

A few lines down from your user name are two links titled Grog and Lashes. 

If someone doesn't like something you've written they can click on the Lashes link... that increments the "negative" numbers that appears in the karrma line just above the two links. 

If they like what you wrote, they can click on the Grog link, and that will increment the "positive" numbers that appear in the karrma line.

As an example, if you like my response to your post here...click on the Grog link under my username... and the karrma positive number will go from the current "+56" to "+57".

[Pablo]

Hmm, do you have to have a certain status before you can give grogs or lashes?  I don't see any links under the user names. 

[captain cajun]

AdriftAtSea, I went to your blog site, I was very touched.  Thanks for your help.  This is great place and great people.  Glad to be part of this site. May the man's wife that had the back problem be healed and blessed.  thanks again. Happy New Year to all.
