Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

    Stupid pun and joke threads. It’s lazy and doesn’t help move any useful conversation forward.

    Reddit is a fucked-up shadow of what it once was.

      It’s all the stuff that moved from Digg to Reddit I wouldn’t want to see a repeated.

      The ones you mentioned. ASCII art pastes. “This” Copypasta bollocks “You had me in the first half” type posts/comments. Short, smart-arsed comments

      Basically, I’d like to see a good signal to noise ratio maintained.

        Not just that, but the top posts of every thread was some variation of a pun, some sort of “teehee I’m so lonely” joke, or deliberately misinterpreting what the OP said.

        And some of those are reposts or bot accounts too.
