Negative karma because of lagging internet + bug

Hello,

I got kicked out of 2 games because my internet was lagging so I was taking too much time. It destroyed my karma.

Now I solved the internet connection issue so it won't happen again. Can a moderator fix this ?

Also on the last game it seems like I got negative karma even though I finished the game !

hope someone can fix this,
cheers

Not a moderator, but:

- You lose karma if you go into negative point at any time in the game, even if you finish the game, and finish the game in positive time
- If you get kicked out twice in a short space of time, you always lose more karma, which is why you lost 20 karma today
- Internet lagging is probably the most common reason for people exceeding time, so I imagine moderators won't do anything in this one instance
- If you play more games, it's pretty easy to get karma back

No you don't. You only do NOT get the usual +1 karma for the finished game. There's no penalty for going into negative unless an opponent kicks you out. Even though it is listed in your recent penalties log, there is no karma-effect associated with it.
