I am sorry, I don't understand your point on how Karma relates to spammers going away and 'joke' accounts not being created, especially if they spammers kept coming back anyway.

Having karma today allows PG to make changes tomorrow if he needed to take care of quality issues.
Okay, thanks. Much clearer :)
