    It was the worst thing to witness on reddit. A post with tens of thousands of likes and only a handfull of comments

      I boosted from 1k karma to 20k by searching ‘pun’ on every top joke each day for a week.

      It’s enough that good/bad posts get boosted up/down by votes without them generating Karma.

      Intelligent answers aren’t always the most popular…

        Reddit karma wasn’t about popularity or intelligence. It was about who got there first. If you shotgun enough comments into brand new threads your karma will skyrocket.

          Also, making comments on the top comments. Plus that’s the only way for new replies to have visibility once a thread has over ~1000 replies.
