View submission: Introducing Community Points & Polls: An experiment only in r/ethtrader
Interesting idea, and I look forward to learning more. I like it better than blanket karma which floats across all subs (especially when some are huge, getting hundreds of upvotes for a low-effort comment).
/u/internetmallcop out of curiosity, what made you at Reddit want to pilot test out this interesting feature in our humble little Ethereum community?

1. The mods here are pretty cool.
2. We've experimented with concepts like this before with our own subreddit DAO to let users use karma as points to do self-moderating. So when /u/Internetmallcop spoke with us about it we jumped at the chance to explore this concept!

a while back i was in conversation with u/internetmallcop and lamenting the lack of governance tools within the sub. lo and behold this was in the works and a sort of collaboration unfolded! going forward the sub cab actually have input into how the points/whatever are distributed.

Glad to hear! Through user research and talking to both users and mods, one of the mods here actually mentioned how cool it’d be if the community had a way to see how contributors felt about things. And here we are.
Also, you folk have a knack for understanding rather complicated things.

MMM, blanket karma. Wrap me up in that!
