Sorry, I saw the article on Techmeme and posted it here. I didn't think about posting the original blog post, but I realize that would have been better.

I know that submitting articles gets you more karma, but I didn't do this to get more karma. I don't really care about getting more karma as I'm mostly just a passive observer of HN and not really an active participant.

I read a discussion on here the other day about abolishing submission karma, and I agree with it. It doesn't make sense why someone should get more karma just for posting a link, or if they do, more karma should be given for comments than for submissions.
