Before I start, I need to say, I am very new to HN.
So after a few days of using HN, I thought my karma was off to a good start. But then after commenting on an article, I got lots of downvotes. That was a 30 percent blow to my karma.
My comment said nothing uncivilized that's against HN's terms. So why am I getting downvotes for saying something different? Will I ever get more than 501 karma!?!
