Ask PG: What are the perks of a high karma score?
I know from a few friends that there are simple perks to having a high karma score (e.g. down votes, avg submission statistics). I was wondering what are all the perks and at what levels do you reach them. I did a little search on searchyc.com to figure this out but couldn't find anything. So I don't feel too bad asking. Thanks.
- jellicle 16y agoMeh, don't get too hung up on the supposed perks. I have sufficiently high karma to downvote but have been banned from doing so, presumably because I downvoted one of pg's friends or something like that. It's a rigged game, so don't waste any brainpower trying to play it. Just read the articles if you like, comment if you like, and think no more about it.
- rcfox 16y ago> I have sufficiently high karma to downvote ... Actually, you don't. The threshold has recently been upped to 500.
