I’m not particularly attached to these numbers, but fyi the scale I was originally imagining was “after the very first upvote, you get something like 3 comments a day, and after like 5-10 karma you don’t have a rate limit.” (And note, initially you get one post and one comment, so you get to reply to your post’s first comment)
I think in practice, in the world where you receive 4 comments but a) your post hasn’t been upvoted much and b) none of your responses to the first three comments didn’t get upvoted, my expectation is you’re a user I’d indeed prefer to slow down, read up on site guidelines and put more effort into subsequent comments.
I think having 1000 karma isn’t actually a very high bar, but yeah I think users with 2+ posts that either have 100+ karma or are curated, should get a lot more leeway.

Ah good, I thought you were proposing a drastically higher bar.
