I've been lightly active for two months and am approaching 200. Maybe your writing style doesn't quite click with HN's readership. People are weird.

  Perhaps. My views, interests, and experiences invariably differ from the status quo around here. I'd like to think that has little effect though--my karma per post is within range of the top contributors'(http://news.ycombinator.com/leaders)* http://news.ycombinator.com/leaders)* *To be fair, the list is quite sporadic. Min = 1.2, Max = 19.61, Avg = 4.909.

        Another issue is that if you read HN through the RSS feed, you will almost always be commenting on older submissions.
