    The concept behind the program is straightforward. Redditors who receive substantial gold and karma from other community members can potentially convert these virtual rewards into real-world money that can be cashed out.

    sigh, that’s desperation. This means that the discussion on Reddit will not be natural or organic, it will cease to be human. Redditors will be like dogs, where they shitpost and post comments that everyone agrees with so they can make money, basically doing what the master tells them in order to get their treat. Reddit as we know it will cease to exist.

      Basically Quora.

      Quora started to pay people to ask questions, rather than reward the people who put efforts into answering.

      I skipped that stupid thing instantly.

    And we thought bots and karma farming were bad before.
