    It would seem this bug has now been squashed.

    Thanks go out to Leshrac (the programmer) for working with me on this.

    If you have any further problem with your Karma ratings resetting to 0 after editing your profiles, please let me know right here!

    Karma points were not saving properly after someone edits their profiles then saved them.

    So giving people points (or taking them away) were semi-useless because it wouldn't keep them if they decided to update their profile with different information. It would always reset their karma rating back to 0.

    I think theirs like 3-4 posts on this!

    Were you just busy spinning and slobbering? .

    It just wasn't making the correct 'call'.

    It was trying to call $thisprofile instead of $profileinfo.

    You a programmer in disguise, taz? .
