Robin Hood?
Well, looks like we have yet another thief among us. Me! A thief with a difference, however. When I discover a hungry pet, I steal some ackers from a recent thief (in other words, if you haven't stolen ackers, you have nothing to worry about). I then match that amount with an equal amount of my own ackers and donate it to the petz' owner.
"My object all sublime, I shall achieve in time, To let the punishment......."

Re: Robin Hood?
You need to be careful, billcat - you lose Karma for doing that

Re: Robin Hood?
I wouldn't want to encourage felonious behaviour.......but I like a man with a soft heart where petz are concerned.........and YES I know they aren't real!

 Thanks!I also felt, quite apart from exacting a little bit of vigilante justice , that my actions would generate some amusement among AccyWeb members. After all, that's mostly what this board is about. I even got an e-mail from the victim - in my opinion, he found my actions humorous.

Re: Robin Hood?
I can imagine he did - he strikes me as that type of person

Re: Robin Hood?
Turns out the my actions may have helped two petz, as the person receiving the donation helps to support her daughter's pet as well.
The Karma reactions are interesting. I would assume that the real life Robin Hood gained considerable karma for his actons. So far, AccyWeb carries on the great British tradition of rewarding those who work (or steal from the right folks) to help the less fortunate!

 "Bryan Adams?" Not if I have to put up with Kevin Costner playing Ribbon Hood. Give me Cary Elwes or Errol Flynn any day!

Re: Robin Hood?
Net results on Karma, including three users who added and one who did not care for my charitable behavior (even though I matched the ackers I stole with an equal number from my own coffers before donating to a worthy cause): Net +9!

Re: Robin Hood?
A special thanks to the folks who responded by increasing my Karma. Thanks Marg Pilkington and Lindsay Ormerod - and to the three of you who chose to remain anonymous!
