Aw, please don't flame people this here. It's not sporting and not in the intended spirit of the site.

You may be confused about the meaning of "flame". I did not flame anybody. Flaming is an insult directed against a person.

I rephrased what they confessed about their deeds.

The deeds are, indeed, in my estimation, unethical.

I assumed that part is not controversial, as the cheated system in question is called the Karma system.

Surely it is not news to you that cheating karma is unethical?

It was instituted to foster trust and good behavior among visitors of Reddit.

The posting is about cheating that system.

I must be missing something here. Please explain.
