By the way, do you know if karma will stay even if you delete the posts and comments they were made from?

It does, so yes, if you saw a comment or post of yours doing bad and getting downvoted you could just delete it out of existence.

    So these spammers could earn high amounts of karma with shitposts, then delete their history and sell the account forward.

    I had to investigate now that we're talking about this -

    • 8 year verified 9500 link/15200 comment karma. Asking price = 130$
    • 22.2k post karma, 4.7 comment karma, 5yrs + verified email. Asking price = 90$
    • 250k post 280k comment karma many trophies, gold. Asking price = $1200

    Interesting. Karma is worth something after all.

      Yep, hard to believe it but it's true. People buy these to scam, spam and steer the discussion with. And I guess it can be a status symbol for some as well as Reddit is hitting the mainstream.
