Just handed out the updoots left right and sideways myself, because my points on this video comment just hit the triple digits (!!!). What a time to be alive.

- dctoedt 6y agoThat's a pretty cheeky comment: You've got one karma and just created the account; GP has been around for awhile.
- atat7024 6y agoAppeal to authority based on points.
- dctoedt 6y agoAnd your appeal is to what, exactly? Answer: It's to the "authority" of an opinion offered by an unidentified newcomer, with no indication why the rest of us shouldn't dismiss the opinion as unhelpful noise. In contrast, points and longevity serve as a rough, very-democratic measure of a poster's cumulative contributions to the community here, and thus (indirectly) of how well the poster has grokked the local cultural norms. That, in turn, gives readers useful information about the weight that they might wish to consider giving to the view(s) expressed by the poster. (Apropos of which: I see that you still have a total of -1 points for the all of five days that your account has been active.)

- sundvor 6y agoThat's actually the same ballpark as mine; thanks again for sharing it, I'm sure it'll be one of my all time favourites as the years go by.
