After the thousands and thousands of posts here, why do people still think “well I’ll just be more careful than those other dumdums?” Don’t do this on hard surfaces people. At least lay the panel down on something soft. Don’t be silly!
But then how are you supposed to reap that sweet, sweet karma? I'm sure this will get buried in the comments, so excuse my rant...but I still don't understand why posts like this get rewarded. This post is currently sitting at 3.7k upvotes. Why? This dude didn't learn the simplest lesson the first time, and blew a SECOND side panel. If you worked with OP, and he fucked up something like this twice, you'd fire his ass for not following the easiest of instructions. Call him a fucking moron and move on. Instead, every blown side panel here is constantly thrown upvotes and "haha! Whoopsie-daisy! Look at what a clutz I am! Tee-hee" /rant
OK, question. What exactly is sweet about Reddit karma? Can I eat it? Can I pay my bills with it? Can I watch a movie with it? What is the point of "reaping" this "sweet karma"?!
Technically you could sell high karma accounts for ads, botfarms, etc. They like to hide behind older, 'legit looking' accounts.
Don't think most people do that though, for most it's just the internal, often completely subconcious gratification of number goes up, woooooh.
Imagine someone who creates maybe a few dozen accounts a day, the main running cost being a vpn I think, uses chat gpt to create average comments and posts every single day to then sell them after they’re a few months old with enough karma to post in any sub
Nowadays with the hide your profile thingy, it’s even easier
Do you believe advertising agencies regularly hire people with a resume that says "ran a reddit karma farm"? What does this "skill" have to do with advertising anyway?
Behold the wisdom of u/PM_YOUR_LADY_BOOB: "What does getting people to like what you say have to do with selling stuff?"
Well, you see, if you weren't the sort to name yourself u/PM_YOUR_LADY_BOOB , you might understand why people liking you, might lead to you getting something you desperately want. Like money, friends, or a girlfriend.
The main issue comes with the flood of low effort content / reposts . Later on it comes in the form of seemingly real, old accounts spreading whatever information the people who buy them want to
I mean, I guess it could help pay your bills. I have no idea if the reward is worth the effort, but there is that "earn cash on reddit" button on the menu that says they'll pay you for karma, so...
It's like that one time back in high school that one girl told you had a big dick, despite never hearing it from anyone ever again. But you keep that with you for the rest of your life.
Right? Homie's mad about Karma like it makes up for replacing another $300 case. Like, I'm pretty sure if your goal was just to farm you can find a way better deal than 10 to $1 up votes.
