and marked it as community wiki, and basically got 0 recognition (according to forum system) for it… And since this is community driven forum, I think all voted and useful posts should be recognized as such
But, as long as I can give back something to this community, I also don’t care much about karma… After all, if it weren’t for all of you, probably I wouldn’t have learnt much of the things I did
There in The new Karma system it is written that Minimum reputation to comment is 50 , i am having only 19 points but i can comment. Can somebody explain me.
This system does not bode well with beginners. For the beginners would be the ones who require answers, but cannot ask questions because they do not have the knowledge to answer other’s questions & hence, would find it very difficult to attain karma points. Quiet a cliche I feel. Would be good if there be at least 1 question affordable that can be asked without karma points & hence provide opportunity to gain more Karma points if the question was a valid one.
if u guyz are also facing karma problem just relate it with the karma is rea life…put efforts and u’ll get it back in a way you would not have imagined… HAPPY CODING GUYZ
I feel like it’s unfair that up-voted comments do not change the karma. Especially when questions about problems are closed sometimes and redirected to tutorial (f.e. DRANGE - wrong answer - general - CodeChef Discuss).
Also I thought that editorials are marked as wiki is some internal rule. I’d like the idea that editorialist get karma, because it’s not easy to write editorial well.
Writing editorials I guess is a paid job , I think that’s why they don’t give you karma for that . That’s fair I guess . But karma should increase if you have helped a fellow code-cheffer anywhere whether under editorial comments , under problem statement comments or at forum . I don’t see up vote and down vote buttons for comments below editorials and problem statements . I think that should be rectified .
Interesting… I wrote to CodeChef team, that there should be description what are those actions, but I thought that I know what “to comment” is, it seems maybe I do not know
