We're doing away with karma numbers. They're now ranged. This is a measure to lessen karma whoring, and provide a more qualitative meaning to karma (which was the original intent). It's a description, not a point system.
In that light, you'll just have to guess how the ranges matched to numbers:
- Very Low
- Low
- Neutral
- Normal
- Good
- Very Good
- Excellent
Note that "Neutral" is the starting value, and that it may be red OR green depending on which side of the fence the user is leaning to.
Rather than reset all karma, we chose to simply apply these values over roughly a wide range of already existing numbers. Thus, they are sort of balanced from -20 to 400.
