collette,
Sounds like you need to hassle some of the local hackers. Any of you folks interested in this?
Also, do you have a link or two for reference purposes so someone can go and check out exactly how the Karma is implemented on a particular site?
I would be interested in that feature and count myself as a bit of a PHP programmer, I programmed the entire CMS for http://warpfiction.com/ (my site) just because I couldn’t theme anything else 😛
Anyway, a few references and I would maybe start looking at a couple of solutions and hacking the WP code, of course I am kinda new but I hopefully could figure it out.
Helping with the WP code would make me feel part of the program and so I wouldn’t want to change because I feel like I am cheating using an existing script 😀
Karma? All I know about it is it ran over my dogma.
