Does seeing my karma have any impact on how you take my posts?








Just curious. Personally, it doesn't really matter to me, and I can't remember the last time I checked someone's karma without it being one of those "I just reached X user level" topics.

I don't check people's karma. All that matters me are the ideas they present.

GameFAQs is too old for high karma to matter anymore since there's always bigger fish and it is further invalidated by the fact that there are karma whales that are regardless not intelligent posters

Someone flinging shit on CE with 3 karma is an obvious red flag. I'd say 200+ karma is a pretty good safe zone

This is pretty much the only instance where I'd care.

It's too easy to spot troll accounts.

If it's exceptionally low karma with high post count / higher than normal karma and low post count who is chiming into topics and acting like he knows everyone here it's pretty clear it's a shitposter's alt so yeah I tend to take them less seriously.

I check karma occasionally when I see a cool name just to marvel at their dedication, but it has no impact on how I view their posts.

Someone flinging s*** on CE with 3 karma is an obvious red flag.


I would venture to say that the fact they're flinging shit is the reason they're to be ignored, not the fact that they have 3 karma.

I mean, I fling shit myself once in a while. I think everybody does occasionally. But at least the better posters around here (which I like to consider myself part of) usually back it up with some sort of reasoning.

I think it's pretty clear.

I really dont get it. Is it because my posts far exceed the quality of usual 3 karma accounts?

Yes, that's the point.

That is am meeting expectations? If anything the people love me. Id definitely be the highest scoring user in the Do You Like series.
