> Do you care about your HN karma?
I'd love to say no. But at some point (years ago), I started keeping an eye on it just so I'd reach the threshold for the downvoting privilege (1000 I believe). And the habit never went away.

No. Wanting to see "number go up" has probably made me comment and participate more, given an extra little push when I had something to say but been unsure whether it's worth commenting about.
