Care to divulge the details. I am just so sick of the karma whines. Anything that gets rid of those is good news.
I feel exactly the opposite. Anything that creates more butthurt should be encouraged. I hope the new system makes the ratings of sages with at least 4700 posts weigh more than the rest of you plebes'.
Edited, Jun 19th 2007 9:58pm by BarkingturtleAccording to Illia (or at least what he's said about it so far) it only seems to affect multiply-rated posts so that instead of taking the current 7 Awfuls to put a new poster's post sub-default, it should only take 4.
I don't believe there are any plans to make this affect the overall Karma numbers for everyone, however, nor to make it weighted based on whether a person is a Sage or Guru. So sorry to burst your bubble there, BT.
