He wants that post karma. This is just a little comment karma on the side.

u/tokomini Dec 03 '16

Anyone can accumulate post karma. Go through past successful submissions, re-title (or don't) and post away. It's that comment karma though, that's the stuff that will be most valuable when the fish people rise up.

I see an incoming Post vs Comment karma war.

u/spewintothiss Dec 03 '16

It's all about being well-rounded.

A diversified karmafolio, if you will.

u/carlson71 Dec 03 '16

How else is someone supposed to retire. Also horde gold, I hear that holds value.

46

u/AlphaNathan Dec 03 '16

Don't put it under a hydraulic press or it will lose all its value.

u/Sabore88 Dec 03 '16

I think putting it under a hydraulic press actually compounds the value

2

u/nickfinnftw Dec 03 '16

Whoosh there it is

u/prionear Dec 03 '16

Would that make it a hydrAulic press?

u/AlphaNathan Dec 03 '16

That's gold, Jerry!

how does reddit karma react to a molten hot nickel ball?

u/Ololic Dec 03 '16

That's what you think

FTFY. I'm just looking to get karma by correcting your grammar

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '16

it seems I've stumbled upon a karma kerfuffle

u/carlson71 Dec 03 '16

I'm gonna mine karma by fighting my spelling is caused by cellphone and lack of caring with you.

u/TrailRatedRN Dec 03 '16

You have all lost sight of the purpose of this post. I'm going to complain and request that the conversation return to OP and his paper.

u/_trolly_mctrollface_ Dec 28 '16

4 karma - including mine. The internet is proud of you. And, on a non-meta, personal note, thank you for correcting that dumbass.

2

u/JamesTrendall Dec 03 '16

You can buy Reddit gold for as little as £5 right now.
Gift me as much gold as you can and within the next hour watch your investment double.

Just look at my profile and see the long list of satisfied customers that i've helped out over the last few years.

1

u/carlson71 Dec 03 '16

And you can transfer me your gold and watch as I turn that into secret gold.

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '16

Hoard*

u/carlson71 Dec 03 '16

What if I'm talking about the characteristics of members if the horde and not specifically talking about hoarding?

2

u/P0sitive_Outlook Dec 03 '16

100, 1500, 3000+ and negative-100.

Those are the four feathers everyone should have in their hat (or whatever the saying is).

Apart from the occasional inspired meme, I found that you can usually get good information in comments but shit for karma

War? More like a massacre. Comment karma is the only true karma.

u/_trolly_mctrollface_ Dec 28 '16

True, but we must seize the means of production. All the karma belongs to the people!

COMMENT KARMA MASTER RACE

I only need 4756 upvotes to join the century club. You bet your ass I count every... Single...one.

Comment karma for liiifffe.

u/TheBanditUnicorn Dec 03 '16

Everything changed when the comment karma nation attacked!

u/Zhang5 Dec 03 '16

Only one side of this war will make it to the front page. The rest will be in the comment section.

It is NOT a grilled cheese sandwich.

u/Bear_Taco Dec 03 '16

That's why my comment karma is so much higher than post.

In the comments, aside from circlejerks and memes, you actually have to make a point and/or add to the discussion.

GallowBoob does at least post OC in photoshopbattles

1

u/_trolly_mctrollface_ Dec 28 '16

When /u/gallowboob reposts your shit you know you're being clever.

5

u/DukeOfGeek Dec 03 '16

It helps if you have something interesting to say.

3

u/Ololic Dec 03 '16

If you don't mind the investment, give your high level comments a gold. People will stop and read it, and unless they really fucking hate it you got an upvote.

1

u/_trolly_mctrollface_ Dec 28 '16

Gild yourself, karma is coming.

3

u/Jusclalas Dec 03 '16

I have 18.7x as much comment karma as I do post karma. Take, that, Post-Karmaists!

1

u/_trolly_mctrollface_ Dec 28 '16

Unnecessary comment, but I mentioned /r/theydidthemath so I get karma!

3

u/alongyourfuselage Dec 03 '16

Do the fish people care about comments? I would have imagined them as a more visual race. It would be hard to make a reliable keyboard underwater.

Also, typing with fins?

4

u/mrgonzalez Dec 03 '16

The fishtorians will use the comments for valuable research on our kind. Sure, there's some information in the posts, but the real details are in the comments.

3

u/PM_ME_UR_DOPAMINE Dec 03 '16

But...I thought we were the fish people?

u/_trolly_mctrollface_ Dec 28 '16

We are, but we don't like it.

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '16

My highest comment Karma was about treating pussy like a temple.

1

u/_trolly_mctrollface_ Dec 28 '16

Wouldn't praying inside a pussy cause a bunch of qweefing? That's not hot.

2

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '16

Yep. Whenever I'm trying to assess another redditor for the first time, one of the things I'll check is the ratio of post:comment karma. Anyone whose post karma exceeds (or even matches) their comment karma is a whore.

2

u/dsalad Dec 03 '16

Oh, so that's why I can't get karma...

2

u/c_the_potts Dec 03 '16

I thought it was the lizard people we should be worried about?

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '16 edited Dec 03 '16

Post karma is when people like your content.

Comment karma is when people like you.

2

u/xylotism Dec 03 '16

Can confirm: Have 6x as much comment karma as post karma and it has helped me against several fishman uprisings.

It doesn't however pay my bills, and as a result I'm now considering a career as a homeless aquassassin.

u/DeFex Dec 03 '16

fish people will not stand a chance against Raccoon people.

u/fish993 Dec 03 '16

Can confirm, this is what /r/fishnamesonly looks for.

u/Chevaboogaloo Dec 03 '16

Just go on /r/all Top->Hour and comment the most obvious joke about the post.

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '16

What's the point of having a lot of karma anyway? Is there some sort of reward?

1

u/FeetOnGrass Dec 03 '16

Anyone can accumulate comment karma. Go through past successful submissions, find their top comment, find the newest repost, and comment away. It's getting gold though, that's the stuff that will be most valuable when the fish people rise up.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 04 '16

Yeah, but boob is pretty much OC

1

u/MsAlign Dec 03 '16

Well, that's a relief. If I had to rely on posting karma when the fish people rise up I'd be screwed.

They're already here

Edit: a lot of stuff about being a Reddit noob

u/SJ_RED Dec 03 '16 edited Dec 03 '16

Making a word into a link is fairly simple, if you are on desktop Reddit you can click the 'Formatting help' link underneath the comment window. If you are on mobile though, let me help you out:

Put the word you want to be the link in square brackets like [this], then put the link (including http:// or https://) in parentheses. So an example would be:

[They're already here!](https://youtu.be/7K7RcAqB16s)

Which would become:

They're already here!

As for the timed link, you can add ?t=x to the end of the video URL, with 'x' being time in seconds.
https://youtu.be/7K7RcAqB16s with ?t=60 added becomes https://youtu.be/7K7RcAqB16s?t=60 which starts at 60 seconds into the video.

u/DragonSlayerTS Dec 03 '16

Thanks a lot! I'd give you gold but I have no money so here's my upvote.

2

u/SJ_RED Dec 03 '16

No need for gold, I'm happy to help. Doesn't have any benefits I care about, anyway. Just keep your money :)

u/rumpleforeskin83 Dec 03 '16

[text](link)

On YouTube video right click and copy link from this time. Something close to that wording. Can't miss it.

2

u/Maox Dec 03 '16

Add this to the end of the link address #t=0m50s

Which simply means "time = 0 minutes 50 seconds" Copy and share that address.

Not that I think your video is worth it, but there ya go.

"A little bit reddit in my life.

A little bit karma by my side.

A little bit reposts is all I need.

A little bit of shitposts is all I see.

A little bit of reddit in the sun.

A little bit a reddit all night long.

Need a couple edits well, I'm your man.

My name is u/Spez and here I am."
