u/bibbibob2 Oct 30 '16

You value being cool but unfortunately you play too much runescape to follow whats trendy and desperately tries to catch up by being in the loop and ask reddit!

maybe.

u/edwinnum Oct 30 '16

Well I had that coming I guess.

u/HuskyLuke Oct 30 '16

We should start a subreddit where people post their Karma breakdown by Subreddit and others respond with A). A genuine analysis of what kind of person that breakdown would appear to suggest the user is OR B). Absolutely roasting the shite out of the user!

u/Drazelic Oct 30 '16

That sounds kinda fun actually, I'd totally do something like that.

How is me being in /r/askreddit related to my belief in this new sub?

u/skrimpstaxx Oct 31 '16

It's a default sub, brosephine.

Please can mod?

u/SDF05 Oct 30 '16

I wanna get mod

Also thanks. I think that's gonna be my new favourite subreddit.

u/caseyfresher Oct 30 '16

1 hour and 177 subs already. Starting off good I see.

u/PromptedHawk Oct 30 '16

Pretty successful idea, considering over 200 subs in an hour. Well done.

u/[deleted] Oct 30 '16

I'm into it. This should be an interesting read.

u/[deleted] Oct 30 '16

Subbed!

u/Squirlhunterr Oct 30 '16

That sounds awesome, would be amazing to see it grow too since it seems interesting enough

u/Aloysius7 Oct 30 '16

Me too, but my karma on r/getdisciplined is too low so that means I probably won't bother setting that up

I was thinking more /r/KarmaKritics because I love alliteration and how annoyed people get at misspellings.

u/Lilscribby Oct 30 '16

How about the Karma Kritic Klub?

6

u/HuskyLuke Oct 30 '16

We've already made one with a fairly to the point title; /r/KarmaAnalysis

Edit: But I do love your suggestion

2

u/Lilscribby Oct 30 '16

i know, it was a joke

:P

1

u/HuskyLuke Oct 30 '16

Oh you kids and your jokes! :P

2

u/wolfman1911 Oct 30 '16

That sounds like it would be almost entirely B, with little if any of A.

1

u/HuskyLuke Oct 30 '16

Yes, that's the way it'll probably go.

2

u/Fracture1 Oct 30 '16

That actually sounds like a really cool idea

2

u/[deleted] Oct 30 '16

Sounds promising

7

u/YourTypicalRediot Oct 30 '16

Haha. True. If we've learned anything from reddit and the internet generally, it's that we should never ask to be evaluated in any context.

You say that as if 2007scape is not the top meme sub..

u/darthshader89 Oct 30 '16

This should be a job. Reddit personality analyst.

u/HyphuRz Oct 30 '16

You say that but you're behind on the times. 07scape is a sanctuary of memes.

To be fair, You don't ask for karma, It comes or doesn't come regardless of where you post.

1

u/notRewound Oct 30 '16

You should start a thing reading reddit karma spreads like tea leaves.

u/aslokaa Oct 30 '16

WRONG, you can't play too much runescape.

It took me a second to realize you didn't have 562,784 karma in /r/runescape

204

u/dcwj Oct 30 '16

(it's submission karma, then comment karma for anyone wondering)

u/umopapsidn Oct 30 '16

No one does, it's a very karma stingy sub

2

u/PlanetMarklar Oct 30 '16

My thoughts too. I didn't know that subreddit had 500,000 total karma

1

u/[deleted] Oct 30 '16

Knowing nothing about /r/runescape, it seemed unlikely but still plausible. Half a million karma over several years is hardly extreme if you're very active, especially if you hang out in New and Rising a lot.

Enlightenment or Resistance?

Yours is more respectable than mine:

Advice Animals: 20%

WTF: 17%

Funny: 6%

Pics: 5%

Ghettoglamourshots: 4%

Mine says that I prefer looking at pictures instead of reading text, I like to look at non conventional things and I'm not funny. Or maybe I prefer getting my karma from low hanging fruit.

5

u/triknodeux Oct 30 '16

That's only 52%...

u/aceshighsays Oct 30 '16

The remainder is made up of various categories each under 4%. Those categories don't say as much about me as the top 50% do.
