Problem with Karma

Ive been thinking.  I think that a problem with karma is nobody is going to want to argue with anyone else anymore and fully state their points.  People will give them bad karma for just stating a controversial point.

if the point is worth making karma doesnt matter.  it cuts down assholes but not necessarily controversial thought provoking ideas

yeah, even if you are right and logical in arguments, people will always disagree with you; no matter were you stand

you can explain your opinion in a courteous way, which will not anger them

I respectfully disagree. No one is going to change their opinion because some e-douche is going to give them a 0/10. And even if they are, do we really want those weak minded individuals contributing to this sanctuary?

UR A CUNT lOLz

posts like that popped up a lot when we used to have without karma. personally I think karma helped, some people don't care, many do. whatever, it's your opinion and if someone doesn't like it one 0/10 won't change it a lot anyways.

I believe that happens if a person has very few user ratings.

Your argument doesnt make sense. You say that people wont state their opinion because they think their karma will go down, but you stated your opinion just fine. Either you dont care about karma ( which defeats the purpose of this thread), or you dont agree with your argument?


Maybe im missing something?
