Quoting @lvxferre@mander.xyz from a recent thread on !fediverselore@lemmy.ca
I genuinely hate karma, I think it encourages mindlessly posting common denominator stuff, but I wouldn’t be opposed to that if handled like Slashdot handles it - it doesn’t give you a karma number, it only tells you your karma is “good” or “bad”.
I feel the same. I know karma is an imperfect system, and it a very debatable topic (another thread: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/19994086 ), but it still has its use to prevent toxic users from burning admins out.

That's an interesting idea. I agree some kind of system could be useful for reflecting whether your behaviour is constantly toxic
Disagreeing with the general sentiment somewhat regularly should be fine, but some people just have a comment history that's literally just them saying crappy and/or antagonistic every single time they engage
Highlighting to someone that they're being a bad actors, or making it easier for mods or others to see that might make trolling less effective and make people more conscious of consistently being anti-social

Yes, that's pretty much the feeling.
Hope you are doing well Cris!

Issue with Karma and Tagging, is that we all have 1 topic that we are all toxic about and we then carry that label everywhere, even on topics that we are completely rational about.
To quote an old joke:
So a man walks into a bar, and sits down. He starts a conversation with an old guy next to him. The old guy has obviously had a few. He says to the man:
"You see that dock out there? Built it myself, hand crafted each piece, and it's the best dock in town! But do they call me "McGregor the dock builder"? No! And you see that bridge over there? I built that, took me two months, through rain, sleet and scoarching weather, but do they call me "McGregor the bridge builder"? No! And you see that pier over there, I built that, best pier in the county! But do they call me "McGregor the pier builder"? No!"
The old guy looks around, and makes sure that nobody is listening, and leans to the man, and he says: "but you fuck one sheep..."

And fellow admins and mods, make sure you don't put too much on your shoulders. Ask if you need volunteers, there are nice people out there who wants the Fediverse to thrive.
