how do people on this site not realize that the points next to your posts affect how your posts are sorted and are literally the exact same system as reddit? am i just so blind that i can actually see the numbers next to my posts or is everyone here just trying to be so anti-reddit they'll make up bullshit that isn't reality?
No idea why we'd want it...
Even on Reddit, it didn't do much.
Lol ok
Karma was pointless. Nobody cared at all. Upvotes and downvotes are fine and useful to be able to see both. Karma is a worthless system and encourages spamming low-effort garbage memes and endless reposting of the same shit.
NGL for me at least it was a good system to sort out the low effort users by putting a minimum karma points
Nobody cared at all
The mods cared. There were many bots used by moderators that relied on karma, the main one being automoderator.
Karma system was a horrible feature on reddit.
This is why I keep asking for downvotes sometimes, just to rig the system. I even downvoted myself.
By the way, can you help me shame myself?
