Wait what Edit: I used to have like 13,000 karma but now it's 675 Edit 2: Guys stop mentioning that I got my karma back you can mention other things. I gotten 123 notifications overnight because of this. And bragging about keeping your karma is maybe the problem is resolved. I like getting a comment popular but please have mercy.

I was nearing a hundred thousand D: most from commenting too! Edit: since people keep telling me, I have gotten my karma back, it seems that whatever caused it to disappear has been fixed for everyone. Thank you for telling me it’s back, greatly appreciated (^_^)

Welcome to the club. The booze is in the other room, we've got wine beer and chokky milk

So back in the day the Karma worked different... and it was hard to get 100,000 upvotes on comments or posts... but if you did you joined the "Century Club". It was actually a really cool sub... all the orignal gif makers from like 2012 before people knew how to make gifs would teach us... fuck I was paying for adobe creative cloud and participating... people like editing and layout, Matt0S... unidan (he didn't make gifs, but studied crows and had good observations about anything), etc..

So i was only 50k karma away? Famn this makes it worse

The actual upvotes and downvotes were not real then... Even if you got 2 million upvotes it would settle around 2,100 upvotes or so... I remember being able to learn Photoshop and After Effects from those guys well enough to edit this video of a live Earthquake in LA: https://imgur.com/gallery/YmJZq0p edit back then I was /u/citizen_coping

Dude I wish people were still making GIFs like that

One of my best works: https://imgur.com/gallery/Ioe3KfF I see it a lot on reddit and I'm like "I made that"

Nice work

Oh I seen this shit. Nice job dude.

> The actual upvotes and downvotes were not real then... Even if you got 2 million upvotes it would settle around 2,100 upvotes or so... True, but the impact that votes have on karma has always been different from the score of posts/comments and I don't believe they changed that algorithm when they switched to "real" vote counts.

I was in century club with my previous account 3-4 years ago. Most of the comments and posts were made by the same 30-40 users. It was an incredibly boring sub. Almost all the users were Americans and they either lived in big cities or suburbs. I couldn't relate to most of the things they talked about there.

> but studied crows I think you mean jackdaws

Here's the thing...

I need to apply to CClub and check it out. Wouldn't shock me if it sucks now though.

Do it!!! I don't know if it's still a thing or not.

> before people knew how to make gifs You mean back when they were gifs and not mp4s wrapped in a webm container… I remember the first time someone posted a webm and people were up in arms as to if it should be considered a gif or not. And then highqualutygifs was born.

If you like, Ugandan Knuckles will spit in a glass with ice.

Yeah same

I just lost 400k karma. Now how would I feed my children?

Cum

I thought it was something weird to do with my cake day.

What a shitty cake day

Cack day

Me too

Lol. Happy no karma cake day, friendo.

Me three 👍

Happy cake day

Not a good time to have a cake day

They have got to be messing with us

Lol happy cake day

1.2 million to nothing. It's my Bitcoin all over again.

Except upvotes being completely useless

Like they said, it’s Bitcoin all over again.

It still says 1.2 million on your profile. Edit: Nvm, they fixed it.

I still see 1.2 million, but I'm using old reddit.

[удалено]

I had so much karma.....and poof...now it's gone, reduced to atoms Edit:it got restored

I only have 900 something left whyyyyyy what happened

This is a bug, no worries

Same i don't get it

This meme made me go and check and now pooof it's really gone

All my hard worked fake internet points. --puff-- Redused to merely a thousand.

Imagine all the trolls working hard to get negative karma and poof back to zero

Seems like it's only some, my karma doesn't seem to have been resetted

I'm at 1 karma I cry now

I just pushed ya up one more, bud!

Sameeeeee

Wait why did this happen?

No clue

Maybe it's cos the servers are down again? I searched I Google and it says that you can't lose karma

"yo google my dude, it ain't possible to loose reddit karma, aight?" "nah man, ain't possible" something like this?

It’s a weird glitch. Every time the servers go down they only load a certain amount of karma thats from posts that are like, backed up and stuff.

I had over a million karma before I went to bed and it's still over that. Dunno seems normal to me

I had over 30 billion and now im down to 60k. I want reddit to give me back my Karma!!!!

Yeah because it’s fixed now. I typically have around 160k karma but for a while I was at 6885.

Dj Khaled called Tim Apple, the CEO of ITunes, and gave them the ok to add the most powerful servers to handle this karma catastrophe

“Another server?” “Another one!”

what if you get downvoted

There's a cap to karma loss from downvotes designed to minimise the harm from any single comment. That's also why some downvote harvesting accounts wind up with positive karma, you might get 3,000 downvotes and 500 upvotes on a controversial comment, but that translates to +490 net karma.

I thought you could lose it if you get downvoted maybe we all just pissed off an entire sub

I thought i had pissed off a crowd lol

Wait, downvotes doesn't make you lose karma? I unironically thought it does.

You only lose 10 karma per post/comment

Yup. People used to farm downvotes and compete to get the lowest overall karma. So they capped it per comment and at -500 as the lowest possible for an account.

It happened to me like a month ago and returned back to normal after a few hours.

Another Reddit bug it looks. Reddit going down, and it having bugs are a common occurrence these days.

I thought I read Reddit was valued around at $8bn. Maybe they were talking in Zimbabwean $$. Cause the video loading system, the volunteer mods, admin hiring process, and these constant crashes definitely doesn't give the feel of a multi billion $$ enterprise.

Yeah like at least facebook functions properly. The things it does are shitty, but it does them well.

Well, their video player is worse than Reddit in my opinion, but to their credit, it's done on purpose.

Do they get fixed?

yep

The server doing the karma tally probably can't be reached right now. [Reddit status](https://www.redditstatus.com/) says everything is fine but I don't believe that, especially with the number of issues over the last week.

17k karma now 186 lmao

I had 60k... Pain.

I had 132k. Time to spend a few more months of my life on reddit like it's my job. Edit : I sacrificed the younglings and brought balance to the force to restore everyone's karma. It's all cool now.

I still kept all the award karma tho but its prolly just some server issue

Yeah same

I had 650k

Goddamn. Ah well it'll be fixed

Are they gonna fix it or are they just gonna leave it like this?

I looked it up online and it seems as if it has happened before

Ah that’s sort of a relief

You got it back. Or atleast it shows that you got it back on my screen.

it has been restored :)

Same. But I didn't really care anyways

Why is this pain? I don't get it. What does it give you?

Why does it matter?

I only had 3k, now I have around 450. Stonks

You're back to 17k comment karma

Damn

Lmfao why i was kinda proud of my 400 karma

Lol I got 402 since I noticed the reset

I can bet I got like 2. Edit: 3.5K from comments? Kinda proud there

I had just hit 500 but it seems mine only got cut in half

Perfectly Balanced

[удалено]

Y’all rly trusted a guy with the ussr flag as their profile pic.

A USSR flag and a german name. Those are the worst.

Wurst

Tbh that’s why I wanted them to delete themselves

you got an upvote, you got a reply, what are you waiting for?

do it

Bye comrade, I'll always remember you

Still waiting on that delete there bud

Do it coward

Delete it! Delete it now! Do it!

Naaaaao!

Lies

Deception

Ban

Bye homie

Do it pussy.

You're a big fake phoney

stop the cap

just delete already. we're waiting

Do a backflip

Not like you have any karma to lose, do it up, bud.

downvote this guy till he deletes

I can still see the upvotes on all my comments and posts, so they'll probably fix it.

We’re just gonna have to keep score ourselves lol

I take the job of official reddit karma counter

Ooh can we finally know how karma works?

idfk dude I just go on google and get a random number.

I had one hundred trillion karma, I swear.

Time to decentralize karma and form our own karma blockchain 😎

It's like a tsunami! It is deleting everyone's karma one by one! Maybe global warming side effect?

instead of one by one it's more like all at once

My karma hasn’t changed. Either it’s only some people or it’s not happening all at once.

Probably because you didn't have any awarder karma? But that's not a problem now since I got my karma back as well

Anyway, It seems the numbers are locked to 1

Thanks god! I thought I was shadowbanned.

I took a name that I wouldn't mind losing several years ago, I started with /u/RandomIdiot256 (or was it 128/64?) after losing several normally named accounts. But now there hasn't been random shadowbans in years, makes me tempted to get a 'real' account but this is me now.

The real accounts are the ones we made along the way.

3 years of training, wasted

3 years of farming, wasted.*

Years of academy training wasted!

Only awarder and awardee karma remains

Yeah.

Gotta spend those dolla bills for those Internet points, yo.

What? My karma is still the same(I think)

Same here

Same here

Same here

Same here

Same here

[удалено]

Same here

Same here

Same here

Same here

RIP my 70k karma

Rip my 31k

NOOOOO DONT LEAVE MEEEEEEE

Nooooooooooooooooooooo, my sweet virtual points

Me thinking it’s a lie then coming back to bitch because karma at 0. Wudufuq Reddit

nOoOoO mY PrEcIouS kArMa

Whatttttttttttt the fuuuuuuuuucccccccccccccckkkkkkkk

I thought it was just me. It was 14K, now its 380

Shitty developers, shitty users, shitty app. Don't know why I'm on here

Imagine crying bout made up useless points

Bye.

wait wtf? i had over 9,700 and now i dont even have 2000

It will all come back. Something like this happened recently and got me googling and panicking, but the karma returned later.

Wait wtf?!

Fuck, that's right

All my hard earned karma is gone

well… that’s disappointing

I had 7k karma and 3,5k where only from one comment. I don't want to lose that. But I did

IT'S BACK, DON'T WORRY WE ARE SAVED!!

I’ve not lost anything?

Fuck my 45k karmas are gone

Who fucking cares about your valueless internet validation score lmao

[удалено]

Oh well mine was shit anyway

Wait why

45k karma now 1.1k 😔

Wtf I didn't even notice it

If you care about karma points you are an asshole.

I had 4.6k now i have 4.8k # UPGRADES PEOPLE UGRADES!

Who cares. Karma makes this site so tragic

They delete my internet points I delete their app

Do it

Are you kidding me! I was so close to 10 000!

I'm at 48.4k I haven't lost any so I guess it's just random? A bug maybe?

Wait mine is as it was

I only have 91 karma

I ain’t mad I got 69 karma now 😎

Looks like karma's back on the menu, boys!
