Hi, right now word karma comes from the locale file (one of the django.po files inside askbot/locale - according to your selection of the language).
So if you want to make this change now - it is possible, but tedious. You will need to edit django.po file, and thange "karma" -> "reputation" in the "msgstr" sections, while taking care not to change "msgid" strings.
Thanks, your request will be implemented, there will be a way to enter your word for "karma/reputation" in the "live settings".

Is it implemented now?
It would be greate, really greate, if it were possible to change all strings in "live settings"
Hi, I have a pull request that renames all the instances of karma to reputation. But you will need to do makemessages again and translate, if you use languages other than English. https://github.com/ASKBOT/askbot-devel/pull/101
Great, not sure we'll use this though as is. We will re-implement this via a setting and add a section to the live settings called "vocabulary" to allow wording for certain terms to be customized. Very soon you will get a request: can we change word "reputation" back to "karma"?:).
Yeah, you're right. I'm looking forward to it.
the solution is talking about messages the way i understand that solution will not make any impact on the word karma in the banner example: (karma: 85 badges: ● 1 ● 7) so, how can I change this.

Well, if you'd include the django-rosetta-app, people could comfortably change all wordings (and add more languages) via the admin web-interface. I have been using it in a few project where clients wanted control on all wording the app and it works great.
