Ask PG: What are the perks of a high karma score?
I know from a few friends that there are simple perks to having a high karma score (e.g. down votes, avg submission statistics). I was wondering what are all the perks and at what levels do you reach them. I did a little search on searchyc.com to figure this out but couldn't find anything. So I don't feel too bad asking. Thanks.

Meh, don't get too hung up on the supposed perks. I have sufficiently high karma to downvote but have been banned from doing so, presumably because I downvoted one of pg's friends or something like that. It's a rigged game, so don't waste any brainpower trying to play it. Just read the articles if you like, comment if you like, and think no more about it.

Actually, you don't. The threshold has recently been upped to 500.

500?
here's me hoping it's something like 20 :(
