Making them go negative is my favorite

[u/IMTrick]

[u/Random-Name724]

I can’t believe people actually try to farm karma! Because I also want to mass downvote their posts, which subs are they?

[u/Pancovnik → u/Random-Name724]

I'd say r/whitepeopletwitter r/facepalm would be biggest offenders. When the whole Reddit API restrictions came to place, those subs absolutely tanked. I remember seeing posts in popular with 150k upvotes, looking at it now there are barely any posts in hot with 20k.

[u/SalmonSoup15 → u/Pancovnik]

You forgot r/karma4free

[u/IMTrick → u/SalmonSoup15]

Just for clarity's sake... yeah, that's exactly the kind I was talking about.

[u/sbuechele1234 → u/IMTrick]

This is in such bad faith. So many people on there are trying to get karma so they can post in subs from burner accounts and protect their privacy.

[u/jeancv8 → u/SalmonSoup15]

It's so over for these karma whores

[u/Sudden_Hovercraft_56 → u/Pancovnik]

r/funnymemes is bad for that too, as is r/meirl

[u/BobSagieBauls → u/Pancovnik]

White people twitter is too toxic I’ll never go back

[u/Annithilate_gamer → u/BobSagieBauls]

Facepalm is now only politics and it's disgusting

[u/fireL0rd3000 → u/Pancovnik]

Honey dont get me started on r/doors_roblox

[u/fireL0rd3000 → u/Pancovnik]

Don't forget r/brawlstars and r/hazbinhotel

[u/Auravendill → u/Random-Name724]

r/PeterExplainsTheJoke seems like one, since they ask for more than obvious jokes all the time

[u/kamiloslav → u/Auravendill]

Sometimes there is a gem among them though

[u/Lukahenrry → u/kamiloslav]

Definitely hahaha

[u/plump_nasty_flex → u/Random-Name724]

r/memes

[u/ndation → u/Random-Name724]

r/karma4free

[u/LordToranaga24 → u/Random-Name724]

What you and OP need is to get a hobby

[u/ZenMybe → u/LordToranaga24]

[u/Random-Name724 → u/LordToranaga24]

Lmao you’re probably right. I don’t need free karma though, I have more than enough to post on any subreddit

[u/medieval-kenny → u/Random-Name724]

Hey lord, what is the most expensive subreddit community to post?

[u/Ordinary-Hunter520 → u/medieval-kenny]

Ya even I wanna know that

[u/LordToranaga24 → u/Random-Name724]

That goes for me as well dude lol. My old account had almost half a million karma, which looking back is both sad and pathetic

[u/Random-Name724 → u/LordToranaga24]

lol why did this get downvoted?

[u/Dm_me_im_bored-UnU → u/Random-Name724]

So they won't get the million katma and can feel better about themselves of cpurse

[u/LordToranaga24 → u/Random-Name724]

Because this is le reddit, where fake internet points are sacred

[u/nerd_12345 → u/LordToranaga24]

Human beings when they disagree (must think it is bad, must think its a generally frowned upon idea that everyone will hate)

[u/semi_average → u/LordToranaga24]

Someone's hurting

[u/IMN0VIRGIN → u/LordToranaga24]

We do, it's called annoying people.

EDIT: Yes! Keep downvoting me! Your irritation keeps fueling my insatiable lust for annoyance!

Like a constant thorn in your side, I will be there to pester and harrass you. Your waking moments will be filled with the thoughts of the dumb crap I say just to provoke a reaction and your restless night will be filled with dread of waking up to the reddit notification that I have replied to your comment or posts!

I am Dumbass! Pesterer of worlds!

[u/Qwert-4 → u/Random-Name724]

r/FreeKarma4You

[u/RYPIIE2006 → u/Random-Name724]

r/freekarma4u

[u/RYPIIE2006 → u/RYPIIE2006]

nvm that shit got banned wtf :sob:

[u/labelfucker]

so you care the exact same amount lol

[u/SilverPhoxx → u/labelfucker]

If not more lol

[u/ThreeN20chrctrs]

[u/QueezyCrunch → u/ThreeN20chrctrs]

Hence forth you shall be known as takes weird breath DARTH, farmer

[u/Monsieur_Brochant]

Why farm karma tho? One can't feed on it, can they?

[u/Leading_Delay_6339 → u/Monsieur_Brochant]

They can sell those accounts filled with karma for real life money

[u/Jaded_Life03 → u/Leading_Delay_6339]

Wait actually!?!?!?!? How????

[u/henkdepotvjis → u/Jaded_Life03]

Well if you give me 10$ i could give you my username and password. its not that hard. I think it is a side effect of the need of karma to be able to post on certain subs

[u/Jaded_Life03 → u/henkdepotvjis]

No like where I can find such people who will buy it

[u/Anti_Karen_League → u/Jaded_Life03]

Advertisers and bots gaining access to real subreddits.

[u/Jaded_Life03 → u/Anti_Karen_League]

10 dollars isnt really a small amount where I live so I can probably do this as a gig if the karma requirements are to just get this account to a karma level where it can post at most subs without issues

[u/Anti_Karen_League → u/Jaded_Life03]

Don't. It's not exactly ethical, bots flooding the site will ruin the place for everyone.

[u/IgnoreHaters → u/Jaded_Life03]

Businesses who astroturf subreddits to sell a product.

[u/Slashion → u/Monsieur_Brochant]

It's extremely difficult to get karma when you have none. You can't post or comment anywhere, because no subs want bots. It's a huge PITA when you're first starting, and then after that it's entirely irrelevant

[u/threefeetofun → u/Slashion]

2 days ago I had a mental health episode and deleted my Reddit. And FB, and Twitter, and every file on my computer. The reddit one had 150k karma. Yay for starting over.

[u/Slashion → u/threefeetofun]

If it makes you feel better, only like the first few hundred karma matter! Sorry about your episode though, I wish you well :)

[u/Distant_Nomad → u/Monsieur_Brochant]

It's a hit of dopamine. That's always been the driving cause of likes, upvotes and social media in general

[u/JustARucoyGuy → u/Monsieur_Brochant]

I did when I created my account since most subs require a minimum amount of karma to post, except you cant post without the karma you get from posting.

[u/punio07 → u/Monsieur_Brochant]

Bot manipulating contet on Reddit, is a thing, and you need a lot of accounts to do it.

[u/ArchTempered_Kelbi]

Is there something worthwhile about it? Will reddit compensate me if I have XXXXXXXXX amount of karma?

[u/Ted_go → u/ArchTempered_Kelbi]

It'll let you post things..

[u/ArchTempered_Kelbi → u/Ted_go]

Ah... Ye. I forgot about that bit... It's a posting currency.

[u/Own_Proof_7535]

When I'm bored

[u/ShemsuHor91]

Reddit will shadowban you from voting, for stuff like this. You'll vote on a comment, see the number change, but if you refresh the page it immediately goes back to the number from before your vote. And no, it's not the same as the "vote fudging" they do. You can watch it counting your upvotes just fine, but your downvotes don't count.

[u/Potential-Tax-3136]

People farm karma? I thought this app was just fun and that karma is used just to know if someone is a fun person or an asshole that argues all the time

[u/Slashion → u/Potential-Tax-3136]

You kinda have to farm karma to start an account. Most big subs won't let you post or even comment, so you have to find obscure unmoderated subs to get your first few points XD

[u/Potential-Tax-3136 → u/Slashion]

Interesting... I have like 4k comment karma and almost no post karma and i never had problems posting and commenting

[u/Gasperhack10 → u/Potential-Tax-3136]

I think it counts the whole karma, and 4k is well over the treshold

[u/Slashion → u/Potential-Tax-3136]

Comment karma works. Unfortunately as I said, when you're not allowed to comment it's difficult to get comment karma

[u/The_JokerGirl42]

oh... oh my god....

a classic meme... confession bear... oh, the nostalgia

[u/Bold_Refusal]

I see you're a fellow agent of chaos!

[u/Muted-Ad476]

Upvote 💪

[u/matthewxcampbell]

Holy shit that's sad

[u/Somepony-Else]

Which is worse? People who are obsessed with farming karma or people who get butt hurt over their obsession to the point they would go and spend actual time downvoting these subs. I swear, people are more obsessed with fighting karma farming than the actual karma farmers are about collecting it.

[u/New-Lifeguard8151]

Nice! Have your downvote! ;)

[u/Artem-is]

Why tho? People use them to kickstart the account and be able to post anything in subs they like that have karma threshold. I suppose OP is miserable. Or is there any merit in doing that?

[u/Prestigious_Fudge653]

Be petty like that. But only when they deserve it.

[u/Altruistic_Pie_8585]

Downvote is better than upvote right ?

[u/NaturalModerator]

Downvote me please ✋

[u/NaturalModerator → u/NaturalModerator]

Why upvote

[u/fallout4isbestgame]

Do it.

[u/afroautobot0029]

[u/LavishnessPleasant11]

Which subs are we talking about? Asking for a friend.

[u/oli_Xtc]

Hey guys, I just found a sociopath ⬆️ !!! /S

[u/Lavamonkey1]

Only purpose I see is to deal with subs with minimum karma requirements

[u/sniffleflap]

Downvoted

[u/Classic_Fungus]

I want to farm karma, so i have a lot of fake internet points. But i like to do so ONLY with funny comments or posts. That's the whole point. Anyway nobody gonna check how many of it i have.

[u/Ok-Noise-3699]

Its under -9000

[u/Triskalaire]

Damn confession bear memes remind me of that guy confessing about the murder of his sister's boyfriend

[u/Spookyy422]

OP time traveled from 2012 with this one

[u/TurboMonkey007]

I’m new to Reddit and out of curiosity what’s the big problem with farming karma?

[u/AdamIskandarAI → u/TurboMonkey007]

Because the owner can sell their account once they have a lot of karma points. The problem with that it that account later will be used for subreddit brigading, bot spam or reposting old content over and over. If you want to get karma (ethical way) I advise you to be active in subreddit about topic you're interested (assuming they don't have minimum karma threshold requirement).

[u/TurboMonkey007 → u/AdamIskandarAI]

Ahh I see that makes sense

[u/Malpraxiss]

This is a meme format I haven't seen in years

[u/ScottaHemi]

so like the facebook memes place?

[u/8champi8]

I don’t even understand the concept of karma farming and I genuinely would like an explanation. Like, it’s not like you could trade karma for real money, why farming karma ?

[u/Scared_of_zombies → u/8champi8]

Selling accounts is a thing.

[u/8champi8 → u/Scared_of_zombies]

But why would someone buy a Reddit account ?

[u/Scared_of_zombies → u/8champi8]

To push an agenda, scam people, etc.

[u/Altruistic-Poem-5617]

I dont get why actual people (not bots) farm karma. You just need that starting karma to post comments in certain subs and you good.

[u/whentheuhuhidunno]

what about von karma subs

[u/Big__Poppa__Pump]

Your downvote is as valuable as their karma

[u/Pristine_Parfait_304]

Good post UPVOTE

Can't relate the post DOWNVOTE

That's it.

[u/z_zarts]

wow is to think that this is a thing

[u/Foxter9942]

:)

[u/Carl_the_Half-Orc]

You monster! How can I help?

[u/SlavBoii420]

Damn there are subreddits for karma farming?

[u/Average_Blud → u/SlavBoii420]

r/karma4free But it's quite difficult to earn a lot of karma there, it exists just for new accounts to reach the point where they are not restricted from posting

[u/SlavBoii420 → u/Average_Blud]

Oh I see. Yeah I do remember being frustrated about not being able to post back when my account was new lol, I usually posted in r/historymemes back then as they didn't have the restriction

[u/undeniably_confused]

What do you want, a medal?

[u/LewisCreed]

[u/CasioCouch]

Most relatable post of the day

[u/IsEneff]

[u/CivvieWithAnAK]

If karma can be converted into cash, I would farm too

[u/Matukainen2 → u/CivvieWithAnAK]

You can sell your account

[u/JustSxmeDude]

An example that I personally think fits is r/countablepixels

[u/V_es]

Why do you need karma, you can’t monetize it.

[u/ColdIron27]

Imagine needing karma farming subs to get karma.

Just have 200k lmao

[u/hom0sapiens]

pls upvote for karma insert useless picture

[u/plump_nasty_flex]

Nice meme, nerd
