Question how to limit a karma ,

i want to ask , how to limit a user give a karma to another user, like after the user give a karma ,the user cannot give after 1 days or something else,

sorry, i'm newbie to kunena :woohoo:

good question im having this same problem users spamming the karma i got one member with over 100 karma because he spammed it so much -.-

There is a time limit (about 6 hours, I think) before a user can award a +/- karma point to another user.

Speaking personally, I think that karma is a total waste of time and you're better off without it for the very reason that C0n has demonstrated: it's too easy to abuse. I recommend you search these forums for the many discussions we've had on the merits (or mostly the demerits) of using karma. Here's a couple, just for starters:

• What is "karma"?
• [Merged topic] "Thank You" options for Kunena

Hi

default limit is 6 hour that user can not give karma to other user.

You can change this time period in the file

components / com_kunena / lib / kunena.karma.php

line 44

//Modify this to change the minimum time between karma modifications from the same user
$karma_min_seconds = '14400'; // 14400 seconds = 6 hours

Regards

thanks @quila il bump it up to 12 maybe 24 hours before a user can increase it again.

but sozzled how are they increasing it so rapidly ? does the timelimit onit not work or isit user's with multiple accounts

We don't know - none of us knows for certain - how people abuse the karma system. If you read any of the messages I've posted on this subject you will understand that the inherent problem with karma is its non-accountability. There's no trace and therefore you don't know who is adding or subtracting karma from whom. That's one of the reasons why karma was removed from www.kunena.com . If karma was still around, mine would probably be minus 15 bzillion by now!

Extend the time limit to 1 day, 1 week ... 1 year if you like. Someone will find a way to work around it. The best way to deal with karma junkies is deny them the drug. Eliminate karma: problem solved.
