The "Karma" of Karma

Usually my Karma is pretty low, tier 8 game today leading a charge in my Vladivostok  and ending up winning I found myself with karma two digits lower than before the game.

I was second on scoreboard only the carrier had more XP

I regularly complement useful players on my team also good opponents.

Apparently other people use it as a revenge tool.

Would be better off removing this from the game..

Play poorly = Bad Karma

Play  too well = Bad Karma

AFK for first 2 mins due to connection = Bad Karma

Go into cap early as DD and get killed = Bad Karma

Skate around cap as a gunboat DD with 8 km concealment at start of round = Bad Karma.

 

 

What else?

Smoke BBs, watch them sail straight through and die quickly, then listen to them blame you for the next 15 minutes!

 

Just let it wash it over you.

My karma has been steadily rising (up to 74 now). I mainly play CV.
I have no idea why that is the case. Maybe I'm not too good, and not too bad as @gopher31 suggested?

It fills no purpose and we don't need more ways to spread the negative waves in this game. It would be better with a system that promotes positive feedback. I've had some ideas but I won't bore you with them.

 

I played alot or Narai a night before the weekend and I got five compliments in a couple of hours. Good feeling.

It's perfectly justified to get reports for that. If I don't see you moving after 10 seconds, I'll throw "afk" reports too.

I usually give 2 mins before i think about reporting. Hopefully at that point  they have connected so are genuinely AFK.

 The worst I had was 14 minutes waiting. That one cost me.

I had another where it took 8 minutes and I got +3 Karma.

There's queue time + 30 seconds countdown time. If your connection isn't "ready" by then, you shouldn't play online games.

I have days when it always takes from 30-120 secs into game before it lets me in, this will often last all day and next day i can play 10-15 games and connect time is back to normal with me waiting for the game to start.

For sure this is karma negative

It happens, I got reported twice in a game today because I got 4 kills in my Yukakaze and a couple of my kills objected to dying.

 

Honestly karma is not even worth bothering with it's always nice to get complimented, but when you get reported for playing well take it as a satisfaction that you out played them so well hey cannot accept loosing. 

 

I just wish I could trade my karma for something useful I don't suppose WG would like to do a karma amnesty where we swap it for steel ? Lol

I kinda like to see the compliments pop up from time to time. Karma is always on the rise. Slowly but shurely.

 

I to wish however to be able to exchange it for something. Maybe a special camo for your favorite waifu or a nice badge to show off.

It is pretty random some days you play well and you get complimented other days you play equally well and get reported, thankfully there are enough pleasant people in game that my karma is usually going up.

If I remember correctly, I was in one of those. :cap_hmm:

 

I do feel like Ops are better for your karma

It's not about connection. Some people have less RAM. On 4GB they can't load in like others. I had such problem in the past, now I have 4+8 GB RAM and I'm loading almost immediately. I don't report unless he's afk for more than 2 min. Ten there's a connection problem.

I find this a perfectly healthy reason for an objection

Indeed.

 

Cheater Hacker Reports are the worst lately cause people just can not understand how you can hit them with a Montana on 24 km.

I also hacked for torping 3 Destroyers in one Smokescreen this weekend. An Assashio and his whole A-TOM Clanmates reported me for driving straight through his Deepwarter Torpedos in my Gearing....

I don't know this whole Karmathing is rather annoying but serves some purpose in ticking off the Alerts.
