He could implement like a betting system. When two users want to make a bet, they can fill out like a form together, fill out their usernames, how much karma they'll bet with all their karma equating an account closure, date by which the bet should be determined, and who is betting what.

The form would be submitted to the mods and they can choose to approve or deny it. Most bets will be approved given the bet is clearly laid out without loopholes. Once the bet determination date is reached, the mods can review it and force the losing party to close their account, or if neither party wins nothing happens.

It's probably a shitty idea but whatever I was just thinking maybe it could deter welching bullshit.

Also I suppose it can be filled out by a single person if they bet something like "I'll close my account if I get 100 dislike votes in 24 hours on this poll."

Banning the shit out of them would be better.

Welching gives CE something to talk about. No need to make it all proper like.

I'd guess there'd be too many betting forms for just the admins.

What he should do is suspend anyone who uses that term, since it's a slur against the Welsh. You people are such bigots.

What happens when people start purposely losing so the winning part could get more karma? :)

Seems like a good way for people to use third-party online chat services to buy karma. :)

Who would buy karma that becomes literally useless after like 50?

Welching is trolling so mark them and they should get hit like any other trolling mark-usually more harshly too

Nope.
They only ever get modded if a mod gets personally bothered
