- bikamonki 10y agoHard to tell, my first guess is that hiding the karma points will help. Perhaps replacing it with a comment reply alert.
- curun1r 10y agoWhat Slashdot did comes to mind...replacing the actual number with an enumerated set of descriptions. It was fairly easy to get to the top classification of 'Excellent', so once you achieved that, there was no reason to check it. It also cut down on the 'karma whoring' that led them to make the change in the first place, so it was a positive in multiple ways.
