Comments from me to other submissions or comments to my submissions?

  There are two distinct ways to earn karma. 1. Submit links or things like Ask HN. Those submissions can get upvoted by others. You earn +0.5 on each upvote. 2. Comments. You earn +1 each time someone else votes up your comment. You don't get any karma for voting on someone else's thing.

    So submitting alone brings no point also there stands 1 point, right?

      Correct

    If I remember you do in fact get 1 karma just for commenting if you are below a certain karma level (in the 100s). This op should get that.

      I never heard that and it's not in [1], so I guess it's incorrect. [1] is an unofficial collection of HN details, but minimaxir keep it up to date. [1] https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented
