Webmaster Bob fixed the gender issue! One bug down, a few more to go. I send him messages to let him know what's wrong or what people would like to see. He will get to them when he has the time. Things will eventually smooth out.

Lorchen - is there something in particular that I can help you with? I'm here to help!

Personally, Kathy, I don't mind what gender you allocate to me, as long as I can learn how to use the more important parts of the new site. It's just amusing. I find modern technology challenging at the best of times and have little time to 'play' for hours in order to work out something new or different. So, right now I feel somewhat disconnected from my friends, because I can't handle things the way I did with the old board. Ah well, I'll get there...... eventually.

I've reported the Male/Female problem to webmaster Bob. It's probably further down the priority list for awhile - working on bigger issues. If it helps, Capt'n John shows up as female, LOL.

I was looking on my profile. I guess I'll have to wait along with everyone else.

LOL- but that's not what it says under your avatar. there's a little icon that says you are 'male" Oh - maybe in the same way that the Long Man is a male, but he has no stuff. Hmmm. Will have to ask PosyP

I just checked and I'm a female! Thank goodness.

Maybe when all of us gals who are listed as men get turned back into women officially, the Karma thing will work itself out, or disappear. I should probably have negative karma 'cus I'm not happy that even after all this time, TQS thinks I'm a man. I know we try to encourage males to quilt, but if they thought TQS would turn them all into females, they might not be too encouraged. My DH doesn't even like to try my hand cream because he thinks he might start growing boobs! LOL

That's it for tonight.

Perhaps Karma is similar to "Like" on Facebook or "Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down" on YouTube. We'll see...

Funny that smite has a negative connotation and smitten is a good thing!

Lorchen we need that for the next CW challenge in Jan

Boy, you take away all of the negative stress and your mind just starts running a mile a minute!

I'd like to know why this function has been added to the site??? Is it to entertain us?? Should we try to collect 'karmas'?? And why? Do I get a private audience with Captain John when I achieve 100 karmas?? Will I get kicked off the Forum if my 'karma' reaches -10??
And finally, are we going to have a challenge sometime? Produce a quilt that's 24x24 on the theme of 'Karma'??

As you can all see, I have an over-active imagination!
