Patio11 gets high karma for his comments because he consistently posts insightful comments and people (myself included) search out what he had to say:

- polyfractal 14y agoSure, I said as much in my post. He writes great comments which are very helpful. Which means they always get karma. But if there is a sorting of "high karma users" to the top...it simply accelerates how quickly he get's more karma. Patio is one of my favorite posters, I'm not denigrating him at all. He certainly deserves all the karma he gets.
