Quoted from robin:I have been planning to get rid of karma points for a long time, wanting to replace it with something better, something more relevant, something that is not just about rewarding making many posts but about rewarding good posts. Post that are appreciated (depending on the sub-forum, topic, upvotes etc) or that add value to Pinside.
Makes sense, and that's what so many other websites have. Why were karma points awarded for mere posting in the first place, regardless of quality?
