So I've recently been "promoted" to Nicolas Cage level in Karma points. Now, don't get me wrong, Im glad to be on the seventh tier to heaven up in this joint, but Nicolas Cage??? I mean, his work closely resembles Keanu Reaves, only slightly more "mature".
check this out:

Karma LevelsLevel Title Required Points
1 Newbie 0
2 Kevin Bacon 25
3 Johnny Depp 50
4 Sean Penn 100
5 Russell Crowe 200
6 Morgan Freeman 300
7 Nicholas Cage 400
8 Hilary Swank 500
9 Denzel Washington 600
10 Jack Nicholson 800
11 Glenn Close 1000
12 Al Pacino 1200
13 Robert DeNiro 1500
14 Anthony Hopkins 2000
15 Julia Roberts 2500
16 Harrison Ford 3000
17 Tom Hanks 5000
18 Meryl Streep 8000
19 Marlon Brando 10000
20 Lawrence Olivier 15000

Clearly, there is a problem. If Harrison Ford offers better Karma than Anthony Hopkins, Im orbiting in some alternate universe. And, don't get me wrong, I love Meryl Streep just like the next guy, but shes at 8000 points and poor old Al Pacino is only at 1200! Have you ever seen Dog Day Afternoon?!?!?! Aye aye aye, what is this world coming to. Why don't we slap Carrot Top at the highest level, whaddayasay?

Well, in all honesty, I really don't care, I just didnt want to see that damn Jon Voigh post plaguing the top of the topic list anymore. There ya go, Jon Voigh, we can give him the negative points for those who screw up the message boards.

But really though, who made this list up?

Thanks P! I still wanna get to the bottom of all this Karma point hubbub. I mean, when I play call of duty 4, I get ranked up, and I earn my stars and my medals. Im not new to the concept! hehe. But I mean, who put who in charge of best karma? I mean, we start off with Kevin Bacon? Why is he so far down at the bottom. Clearly someone hasn't seen "White Water Summer" Eeker
I demand an answer!!!!

I would disagree with a couple of the placements... Harrison Ford hasn't done any good work in years.

As of writing this post, I am listed as havimg written 243 posts... so why am I Hilary Swank? How does that work?

As Nicolas Cage's number one FAN I can't believe they spelt his name wrong on an actor's forum. There is no H in his name!!!!! Confused

The actor of the 21st century.

Actually, I like Sean Penn better than Russell Crowe so I guess I should stay at my current level for awhile. I'm never posting again!

mr. avidactor,

do you know if call of duty 2 would work on a powerbookPC G4 1.5 GHz with 1.5m ram? i've been playing the demo version and it works up to a point. sometimes it crashes on me but i'm wondering if it would happen with the full version?

Well, I still think Harrison is talented, but these numbers are waaaayyy off!
I mean, why is Julia Roberts so high up there? And yeah, they did spell Nicolas Cage's name wrong, hehe.

Hey Matt, I may be moving back to maryland soon. I would be in the columbia area...possibly!
