The owing of a favor or other positive courtesy, based on someone doing something helpful or positive for you, without you having the opportunity to return the gesture, either due to circumstances or because such returns are declined.
A: Dude, someone just returned the wallet I lost, credit cards and everything still in it!
B: Did they leave their name or number?
A: Nope, nothing. Guess I've racked up some karma debt.

Money that is borrowed, or money that has a negative value, as with an invoice or bill but with a facade of having inherent tangible value.

Used in conjuction with City of Heroes/City of Villans MMORPG's. The debt fairy is a mythical creature that listens for phrases similar to 'Yay, no more debt'
(Lost experience points in City of ...);
at this point it magically changes the next encounter to one where you will die instantly; thus accumulating more debt.
There have been no confirmed sightings of these creatures, but most players know they exist.

Often occurs when you use words to describe an activity on a web forum, one whose users typically relate better to photos.
By posting, you have "gotten it (the topic) off of your chest," so to speak. However, other, perhaps, less intelligent forum users - accustomed to photos, instead of words - express their discontent, causing you to feel an obligaton to edit the post, include photos and undergo all the work that might entail

I have a photo debt running on the car forum I use. I described my work on three different car projects, but the wording was too complicated for most of the forum users to grasp and they told me so. Therefore, if I wish to stay in the good graces of the forum, I am in a "photo debt" to them until I provide photos of the projects I described
