The Karma Fairy sneaked up and whapped me with her wand again. And, as before, I have no idea why. Could it be the (ahem) quality of the writing? Spelling? Punctuation? Good Grammar? The position of the stars? Sweet Fanny Adams?
I feel like a blindfold man in a darkened house at midnight, stumbling from place to place. Suddenly someone hands me a cookie. A paper cookie but a cookie. Better than nothing but what's it for? Did I do something or did I refrain from doing something?
Most Mysterious.

The idea is that when you've demonstrated enough good posting, that you aren't just some wicked troll or something, you'll get to post with a "Karma bonus" that'll give your posts an automatic +1 rating. I've got the Karma bonus, so I could always post at 2, but I have it turned off and only apply it when I think I've definitely said something worthwhile.

Ah, then the karma points are food pellets for lab rats.
