Wow, this topic is so relevant to me. I felt that I've became obsessed with "likes" recently on Reddit. Well, they call it karma. But, same thing. Karma points are kinda hard to get. Mainly because there are 3 things that has to happen - 1. Write your comment early enough 2. Write something witty enough 3. The thread needs to become somewhat popular Sports threads, mainly Game threads, are a gold mine for karma. I found, recently that I wrote things there partly because I loved the team and atmosphere (Braves fan), but also because I love refreshing and seeing all 'dem karma points. I've became so obsessed that I realized I had a problem. Each time I go onto Reddit (the new version), my eyes immediately darts to the top right of the screen to see if I went up or down. It became distracting that I looked for ways to turn it off. Reddit's user settings, from what I saw, doesn't have anything that will hide those points. Luckily, I could revert back to the old Reddit layout. Funny thing is, I'm barely on the Game threads now that I cannot see those points.
