Comment on New protection against karma bombing, damage undoneparent

Comments

I thought it was the other way around: never try to solve a social problem with software.

The karma-neutral idea sounds like a good one, but then you remember that it's easy to create new accounts... Ultimately, you just have to depend on people to do good or leave.

A fair point, but there is a downvote threshold (20 points). Easy to overcome, but also easy to detect.
