Forum:Repellant Stick Karma Gain

I couldn't see anything about it on the wiki page for the repellant stick, and i'm also not 100% sure it's true but after having been given then repellant stick by Moira and she says something along the lines of "I hope you can find a better use for it than killing poor molerats" Then shortly after this I was killing Radroaches with the stick and gained Karma for no apparent reason than killing Radroaches. Can anyone confirm this or disprove it?
 * Lol, really? I just started a new character and I'm working on the Wasteland survival guide right now. I just finished the minefield quest, so the Repellent quest should be next for me, I'll check it out. --Esscex 05:37, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Do you have a companion? Did you recently run away from any battle? More than likely what happened was there was a nearby cannibal hunter or something like that which you contributed to killing who finally died. Freeing wastelanders from their binds as hostages or saving them from traps may also give you positive karma. Were you near paradise falls? Something may have happened there which was attributed to you. If it was indeed the radroach you should check to make sure it wasn't a named Radroach and check the roach article and the areas article for bugs like this. --96.243.180.70 14:09, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I didn't have a companion at this point, if I remember correctly it happened in the RobCo Facility and I hadn't freed any wastelanders. All I did in the seconds before the Karma gain popped up was kill 3 radroaches with the stick.131.251.134.159 16:36, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
