I think this is a little sad (in years past, I definitely put more effort into posts because of that sweet sweet 10x). I remember thinking that this doesn’t do all that much to change the relative ranking of users, and so it’s not clear it’s worth the code complexity, but if it were free I personally would like some smoother gradation (like 2x for posts, another 2x for frontpage, another 2x for curated).
Are comments currently accumulating karma in the same way that toplevel posts do?
