COMMENTS:
Don't know if Miss Manners formally addresses it, but personally, I have come to drop a short acknowledgement in their Pvt box.

Mostly as a courtesy, but it also affirms that the K did really go through and didn't fall into some temporary glitch.

Funny you should say that, is it impolite not to thank?, I am not sure myself.

Thank you...I was not sure, in that case I owe some.

I tend to thank them because it was nice that they took the time to give out karma.

It is appropriate to thank people for giving you favorable karma ratings, but it is not inappropriate if you don't. It's *sort of like giving a small gift to someone - you don't give it with the intention of receiving a thank-you note.

I try to say thanks, but sometimes I forget, Im old, so forgive me :p
by Steelhamster on Tue Oct 05, 04 10:25pm [+]

it's the nice thing to do but i know i forget to sometimes.

i always feel bad that i don't give out enough karma to those who give me karma BUT that's not the way it's supposed to work anyway.

i often don't notice whose ballot it is til i decide to rate it.
