Counterpoint: mulch your account every so often.

It fights the development of cliques and forces people to focus on the message, not the messenger. And it sharpens your own need to make a good point, rather than posting as $KNOWN_USER and waiting for the clicks.

I've done this roughly every ~1-2 years or so since I joined about a decade ago, so my ~8-9k of aggregated karma is spread across multiple accounts.

On that topic, it's about time to rotate to a new one. Catch you all on the other side ;)

I do this about once a week. It keeps me from caring about points. If people can't see past my green username status, then it's time to move on.
