Failed Proposal

[nikkianddean]

Too bad, so sad! I love pop the question, but I have to wonder about his sense of reason. A $12k diamond inside a shifty helium balloon is a recipe for disaster - what a nincompoop!

 

(i couldn't resist that one)

wow..... wow

At least he sees her true colors now I guess! Yes that was dumb to put a 12k ring in a balloon but seriously - if my FI told me that I would feel SORRY for him! First of all for being such a dumbass but second b/c I would know how hard he tried to make our proposal so perfect! She sounds like a beotch! Hope he hits the road - and if enough publicity gets out about this maybe someone will find his ring/balloon and return it - hey it COULD happen right!

Actually, I only had 1 karma at my "high". I'm curious about the karma too! I thought maybe it was "x" amount of reputation points = 1 karma, but I never found any proof of that.

When we outed someone's "true" identity awhile back- I decided to steal her points to screw with her, but it took the amount of points she had away from me and reset my karma to 0.

It used to be that Catherine and I were the only ones who had tried to thieve from a user, but damn- I just looked at the list, and there's now like 35 attempts (most unsuccessful, but a small number of successes)...

Wow, words can't even express how bad that sucks.

 

For some reason though I was under the assumption that a ring was insured for 30 days after it's purchased under the jewelry stores policy. I could be totally wrong though or perhaps "Stupidity" is not a covered loss.

We went crazy thiefing to see how it works (not well). Then we realized we lost our karma. I tested the x reps = 1 karma, but it didn't work. I had 3 reps & 3 karma. Then I got 50 reps & I have 4 karma. Currently I think karma has to do with how long you are a member and probably other stuff. I saw someone with a lot of karma & not a lot of posts, but they joined a long time back. Seeing your 0 karma confused me, but now that I know about the point stealing it makes sense.

I had a big discovery yesterday. When you post a template & someone downloads it, you get the 50 points the lose.

Someday I will know all the secrets of the forum.

Wow--- that totally explains why I've gone thru some serious jumps! I had a bunch of "template" type things out there for making logos, budgeting, and resort comparisons.

Whoa a forum about the forum. This is blowing my mind so late at night. I will have to look at it tomorrow.
