Display if Karma System is active or not

93 votes

The notification for the Karma System (if the penalty is active or not) gets lost in the chat log. It would be helpful if that was displayed somewhere other than the chat in the moment it happens.

I left a game after a bot took over for a player thinking the karma penalty was no longer active but now I'm 19/20 :(

It would be much nicer than having to click the pop up dialog with people leaving and joining all the time to fix their bugged screen.

I've had this issue over the last couple of days. Three games where a player has quit, I leave, karma gets hit. 17/20

Did the system say that karma was inactive? Like a notification popup or chat message?

I don't even get a popup anymore. There is no way to even tell when the Karma system is active. Quit a game because we had 2 turds who left. So I left and am now 8/9 Karma.

maybe how there is an icon for people spectating there can be one for karma? if its active or not? its beginning to be a pain leaving a game after a bot takes over thinking its inactive. also maybe there can be a button to vote to disable it? i don’t think many people are familiar with voting to disable

Should be a unanimous vote to end the game without karma for any players if people quit. Playing with bots can be dumb, which is why we play with people.

Took a Karma hit today on a game where 2 players left. I was 3rd to leave. This can't be that difficult.

This problem persists. Happened just now! I was 20/20, but now I'm 19/20, after karma penalty was (supposedly) inactive

Came here to say the same. You get this notification that says "karma system is de-activated, you can leave with no penalty!". But if you leave, you still get penalized. I used to think it was because the player came back later and the karma system was active again. But yesterday, I waited like 5 rounds after a player left to make sure they weren't coming back and then I still got hit for leaving.

it's pretty wack when I'm trying to study the board and place and these notifications pop up. it's almost like an offensive technique to screw up your opponents.

Hi all. Why having a good karma is too important? Only for reputation? Or it affects the lucky of the dices? Thanks

Nicolás, karma it is an indicatior of how experienced and reliable (reputation) a player is. It has nothing to do with dice or any other aspect of the game. For more details feel free to post at discord! https://discord.gg/mB4vjwf

Have played in games where it says karma is disabled and then everyone quits. And then I have lost karma. Would be nice to be able to confirm that karma is really disabled.
