Comment on Tell HN: Can we stop commenting on troll comments?parent

Comments

Simply making a bot to submit articles based on the home pages of some technical news web sites through screenscaping the external link URLs would be sufficient to increase the Karma score to unnatural numbers. So, some solution may be needed to stop this.

That's easily solved by divorcing submission karma from comment karma, which pg should do anyway.
