Just a suggestion to stop the Karma abuse.

Y'know how people will just like say "hello" or "thanks" and still get the same amount of Karma as someone who literally writes a Harry Potter book each time they comment? Well, I feel this could be solved by having a certain amount of words to be written for you to get karma like, 5-10 words for the 0.05 Karma, instead of the "thanks" or "yah" someone says and gets Karma for. This just annoys me is all. I know the forums' mod's deal with certain people, but doesn't this sound like a decent suggestion/idea to implement into the forums? All it takes is like 30 seconds to write a sentence and show some effort...instead of gaining something someone can get by literally saying "yah"
Adding to this suggestion, I'm aware that some forum games designed by people have been made and meant for like 3 words or less, and to solve this, I suggest a word limit feature in that style of a forum topic/game that still allows Karma to be added to your account.
Also anybody who disagrees with me, its fine. I personally just get annoyed by this and I feel SOMETHING could be done about it.
I mean Karma is almost pointless anyways, but still, the system could be better. (I think) :P
(NOTE): If you think about it, all you have to do is PM the person in the forum topic if you really really have the urge to say "yah" or have a one word comment. lol

YUSSSS DO IT

Hahaha did you just see what I did there >:D! I am one of those who type Harry Potter novels and it dismays me to see those who have less literary ambition that have more karma than I simply due to the fact that they have taken the easy road.
I very much agree on this. Well some people need to stop spamming on threads just to earn karma... And when I say spam, it's literally bumping a thread with 1 word response that doesn't even relate to the topic. I wish people who do this will be conscious of their doings. ._.
We really need it. People keep spamming and spamming and spamming for no reason. Sometimes the comment doesn't even make sense. :/
There's a lot of people who abuse of the way karma is obtained.And they need to stop.
And I was going to say what you did <.< @iCantiWill
@Dragon Heart Please stop spamming ;-;
When they reply with this in Scam Reports...
And they would quote everyone
Yes please! Maybe -0.2 karma if you spam?
Also, I know almost nothing about coding, but I have seen a bit of it and it looks difficult honestly. I'm sure there is a lot of effort put into it all, but still even if nothing coding-wise could be done about this, mod's could possibly work around this in some form? :P
Bit of a dodgy idea but... What if you change it and just... Don't tell anyone.
It wouldn't work forever, and people will always try, but not telling anyone could help.
Probably the developers would actually do this without us knowing.
