Negative Karma

Being new to this forum, I probably do not understand the ways of the world when it comes to Karma points.
I seem to have attracted one person who gives me negative Karma for me simply having a different opinion to him.
Is this how it works? When (and if at this rate) I ever qualify to give people negative Karma points, do I do it if I simply do not agree with them?
Interestingly, looking at others posters Karma, he seems to make a habit of issuing negative Karma so I assume that the Karma issue is simply a game.
Really not sure how this works.

Thanks, forgot to add, negative Karma usually accompanied with obscene remark.

How did you manage to pick up two negative Karma points for that post? There was nothing about it that anyone could object to.

Don't worry. Nobody knows how it works.
It's a sort of game, but if you want to play, it reveals more about the player than anything else.

neg karma supposedly is to deter unsavoury posts, but since its inception it has been used numerous times for justification of simply that a view point is different from the poster and reader, and personal attacks and yes it has become a bickering game of geriatric portions now
P.s. u can only give karma when u hv 20 +karma urslf

Just use tapatalk. Then, like me, you can't see the karma points so you don't care.
