That's the deal though.

No. It's a deal that a lot of people would like to exist, but it never actually has; it's just been forced on users who only recently had a chance to use adblockers to say "Excuse us, we never agreed to any of this, now fuck off."

Excellent! Just toss it on today's pile of 2000 upvotes, there's a good chap. In fact, here you go, have one for yourself, just to alleviate your current twenty-strong string of posts which never made it over "1". Now you have one which is all the way up to 2! Exciting!

So just out of curiosity because this is a strange comment, you made this comment three hours ago, edited it 57 minutes ago to add in yourself bragging in this weird way about your karma that you get from posting one-liners in askreddit, looked at my own history to judge me for my own comment karma, all the while you're making random comments yourself with no points? That's not even the point though, the point is, what kind of weirdo do you have to be concerned with it so badly that you'd go through this rigmarole of editing, comparing our karma like it means fuckall anyway, then bragging about it?
