I was nearing a hundred thousand D: most from commenting too!
Edit: since people keep telling me, I have gotten my karma back, it seems that whatever caused it to disappear has been fixed for everyone. Thank you for telling me itโs back, greatly appreciated (_)
So back in the day the Karma worked different... and it was hard to get 100,000 upvotes on comments or posts... but if you did you joined the "Century Club".
It was actually a really cool sub... all the orignal gif makers from like 2012 before people knew how to make gifs would teach us... fuck I was paying for adobe creative cloud and participating...
people like editing and layout, Matt0S... unidan (he didn't make gifs, but studied crows and had good observations about anything), etc..
I was in century club with my previous account 3-4 years ago. Most of the comments and posts were made by the same 30-40 users. It was an incredibly boring sub.
Almost all the users were Americans and they either lived in big cities or suburbs. I couldn't relate to most of the things they talked about there.
Idk how it changed but it became a lot easier to get upvotes. One thing they did was allow some subs to hide upvotes for a while after a comment is made which does seem to stop the hivemind somewhat, if your comment got downvoted early then people would pile on.

Wait what
Edit: I used to have like 13,000 karma but now it's 675
Edit 2: Guys stop mentioning that I got my karma back you can mention other things. I gotten 123 notifications overnight because of this.
And bragging about keeping your karma is maybe the problem is resolved. I like getting a comment popular but please have mercy.
