      It was worthless on Reddit too 🤷‍♂️

        Not as much.

        Reddit had hard coded limits on posting and commenting that went away after a certain threshold of karma showed you could be trusted.

        Some subs also had minimum karma levels that you needed in order to post and comment to keep griefing down.

        The karma clubs weren’t really a big deal, though.

          Yes, but those limits were very low.

          Before reddit changed the karma algorithm so that it’s easier to gain karma, I was a member of /r/centuryandahalfclub, for people with at least 150,000 combined karma. It was mostly pictures of animal penises.

            I have read that so many times but have never seen any links to examples of actual sales.

            Edit: Did a quick search and found thousands of accounts for sale but the average price was ~$0.20.

            I seriously doubt that selling accounts could generate any real revenue worth the time and effort for anyone living in a western country.
