I have read through countless closed threads on Karma but I have not been able to find out a way to identify the person who gives you Karma.  I got my first one today and I would like to return the favor but I dont know who did it.  So I am hoping that I will be able to read through the countless flames that I am going to recieve and maybe get a decent answer.

Well...

Unless they sign their karma there's no way of telling yourself.

You could ask mod because they can see who sent the karma.

First of all, you can't see who gives you karma, unless the person wants you to know, dbdy typing his name.

Second of all (If I've not gottens something SERIOUSLY wrong here), returning karma is not allowed, nor putting stuff like "+1 me, +1 you" or "Help me reach my karma goal of x" in your sig is allowed.

Returning Karma IS allowed, asking for it is not.

Thats what I will do    I had a feeling I might get multiple Karma whores claming to be the one.  Thanks man

Pretty much been answered. You can't tell who gives you karma, even if they sign it themselves people have been known to write other people's names, (which is an offense under karma abuse, so don't do it.) If you have someone giving you pointless abusive karma ask me or one of the othe staff and we will deal with them.
Also in general you shouldn't "return" karma. Karma is earned through intelligent/funny/worthy posts, not because you gave someone else karma. Still, if you feel you have to I'm not going to throw a brick at you.

Ka Pai.
