      Some clients will count things up for you, it’s a way to keep people interested. Ultimately I agree that karma systems encourage people to take things to an extreme and defeat the purpose of interacting in a community. It’s like gambling.

        It’d be better not to have that option, to avoid going the way of Reddit with karma farming bots reposting everything so they can sell their high karma accounts.
