I don't know how to describe it, but it feels nice.
I don’t honestly know why we have them
social pressure against shitty liberal/racist/transphobic/etc takes, brigades, etc
Idk if I posted a bad take (which I've never done, as the one true leftist all my takes are good) I'd rethink my position a bit more if it was heavily dunked on
Same, not sure why there's that box. Sorry I figured out what it means tbh. My ideal is thread bumping style of the forums of old where fresh content got to the top regardless of how popular it was to people not involved in the thread.
Well, you helped me get a better score on the replies though. I like that number better.
I want to see my universal one. Right now I’m stuck using post count and comment count.
Displaying it privately to the user would probably be fine for the sake of interest. I don't see harm in that. I am leaning away from showing anything public though now, it promotes a really nice environment.
If we grow to a size of any influence or worth there is an inevitable thing we can't escape -- a third party site will popup that gives karma scores and scoreboards of all users by scraping the site. How to handle that down the road is probably something admins should be thinking about in advance so there's a plan for it.
^ This. I've been considering posting something along these lines in !userunion@hexbear.net for a while now. I'd like to see my own score, even if it's private.
apparently you don't need the user_id. username is enough lol. saved you a call.

Are we gonna get haughty about low user ids like ICQ users? BTW I'm 517.
