A few observations from someone in the "Top 10" for 8 years now: - You're never as good as your upvotes. - You're never as bad as your downvotes. - Karma ebbs & flows with the audience, which changes dramatically. - I sense no correlation between karma & quality of real life. - I sense little correlation between karma & quality of contribution. - I sense heavy correlation between karma & volume of participation. - I sense very heavy inverse correlation between karma & real work completed.
