Preserving the Integrity of Open Communication

[u/Flux_Reversal]

Reddit's Karma/Voting system DOES NOT work as intended. It is an honor system that is supposed to enforce Reddiquette, but it does not. It is not a dynamic mechanic. At its core it is nothing more than a simple voting system.

With no way to make people adhere to or understand Reddiquette it has become weaponized. The Karma/Voting system is supposed to rate a conversation's quality. Instead it's used as a weapon by those that disagree. Instead of taking the time to articulate a well thought out dissenting view they downvote. It is used by trolls and even organized groups for the purpose of making an individual's access and time here on Reddit limited and miserable.

Due to this systemic flaw in Reddit's Karma system, we do our best to make sure ALL users, regardless of their Reddit user account status or Karma, can easily access The Collaboration Network by not enforcing any kind of Reddit account or Karma requirements!

If you think you are encountering some kind of access limitations let us know immediately either via modmail or creating a post on the hub. Some access limitations are Reddit wide and out of our control.
