I honestly have absolutely no idea how much karma I personally have, and this really isn't the kind of forum where stuff like rank matters... at all. Seriously, I've been here for almost 4 years now and I still have absolutely no idea how the rank system works, nor do I pay attention to the flashy colors and icons next to peoples' avatar. I have always said that your true rank lies in your signature. It's probably best to drop the whole karma thing. I really would not have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out, and I don't think anybody on the board will judge you for it. Like I said, this isn't your standard internet board where post count and rank and karma and all these nonsensical 'trophies' rule the "who's who" on the board. It's all about learning, teaching, and sharing different aspects of marching (and sometimes concert) percussion.
