Stop calling them 'imaginary internet points'. They are real internet points. Digital internet points, whatever. But they exist, in a database, on reddit servers.

You're not shit next to me. My genes are just light years superior to yours and I don't even need to look at you.

I am a bot. (Info / Contact)

I gave you an imaginary internet point for this post.

i took away imaginary internet point that you gave him - for no particular reason.

I took one too. At this rate we'll have him sucking cock for karma by the end of the day.

This guy pimps

What idiot would suck cock for imaginary internet points?

Username checks out.

Literally one of the worst reddit cliches ever.

dabs on you

😎

How?

But mine oddly doesn't. I have too much imaginary points

Everything is real.

Well we do live in a cybernetic universe and there is feedback between the different levels in the hierarchy of (((controlled))) and )))adaptive((( systems.

PS that makes it real.

¡Jeb! is taking the loss of his dad pretty hard.

Sqrt(-1)

Except for the imaginary component of complex numbers

Imagine caring about imaginary internet points lmao

... so much you have to say they are 'imaginary' when you get fuck all of them on your posts.

WARNING: (((Sandor))) is a (((Gaelic))) name. He is one of (((THEM))).

Again the ugly Westorosi racist dogwhistle of triple parenthesis rears its ugly head.

Now I understand why Robert Allam tried to get this sub banned.

anti-West

the goyim are awakening

Shut your jew mouth

Nani? It's a Hungarian name.

LET'S UNPACK THIS:

Your comments got 65,181 imaginary points in 4 years. That's 16,295/year.

My comments got 21,340 imaginary points in 10 months, but I'll be a sweaty and round it up to one year, so 21,340/year.

Post-related imaginary points will not be compared because I hardly ever post shit so it doesn't count.

As you can see, the FACTS clearly DEMONSTRATE that my imaginary internet point-farming is more EFFICIENT than yours, even though I DON'T CARE.

I care

Lmao karmawhore

Lol, that bot has 17k in 13 days. He mogs you hard.

How do you know it's not a she tho

Because it's a bot, and thus a logical construct.

GOOD bot.

Are you sure about that? Because I am 99.50483% sure that better_bot is not a bot.

im glad you care about our internet points <3

but I'll be a sweaty and round it up to one year

You have just invalidated yourself in this argument and all arguments to come.

As a consequence of you being an idiot, you are now required to keep your opinions to yourself in perpetuity.

GOOD DAY TO YOU SIR!

it's a meme you dweeb

No need to be a sore loser, sweaty

Allegedly Tupac cares.

That is only if dont nobody else care.

If don't nobody else care

gay

Lol not very efficient at all

I said "more efficient". It's a relative statement.

Whatever you say karma peasant

What can you do with them? Can you trade them for goods and services? No. They are less valuable then crypto currency and that's saying something.

I'm sorry you didn't get invited to the private karma store

Actually people sell Reddit accounts

Maybe I need to rethink my stance on capitalism....

It's certainly worked out for my family lol..

But they are imaginary because they dont translate to anything real. At least with a bank account those fake points can be "traded in" for real tangible money

Imaginary is not the right term.

Insignificant / worthless / vanity / token ... all good.

Imagine caring about real internet points lmao

It is annoying when you can't respond for 8 minutes because you were posting white genocide talking points.

You can make money out of these so called fake points.

Your bank balance is stored in a computer too, but that doesn't make it 'imaginary'. Obviously reddit karma is less important.

We all know what they are, so just say e.g. 'someone got upset over internet points'. It is neither accurate nor illuminating to add 'imaginary.'

Fiat currency is real to me, goddammit!

Get a load of this boomer

OK, why don't you give all your fake money to charity then.

Because people are dumb enough to give me stuff for it

yeah you're dumb and obviously don't onow anything. "Real" paper money is just as worthless as a number on a screen. It's people that attribute value to it. So yeah, internet points can have value just like your bank account balance and paper money.

Except people don’t attribute value to internet points so I can’t buy anything with them. Even Reddit doesn’t allow you to exchange points for some dumb Reddit gimmick, they are literally 100% completely useless. Say, why don’t you transfer all your money to me and I’ll pay you back with upvotes?

Oh but the internet points have value. Maybe not monetary value but value nonetheless. They let you buy, amongst other things, respect. If you're a poster with over 1 mil Karma, that means you're much more active and valuable to the community than a random guy who has 1 karma and who's been lurking for the past 2 years.

Nobody respects anyone for karma. If you have over a million karma you are likely reposting trash across numerous subreddits, dedicating all of your time to boosting that number and doing nothing else, which deserves and gains no respect.

The one million part was just for perspective. If you're an OC poster (so not gallowboob or dickfromaccounting) and have a lot of karma, damn man, that's sweet.

People value Jesus and that doesn't make him any less imaginary

okay yeah you're retarded. can't find an argument so you just insult a completely unrelated group of people. Well done.

I don't need to argue when the facts are all on my side

I don't think it works that way. Bye.

Go with ignorance

Y'know, whether the thing is valuable only because the country that prints it is willing to maintain its security to protect it, or whether the money has value because it's shiny because it was dug out of the ground, it's merely a proxy to make trade easier. If I get $25 an hour, I know it's going to cost me about 30 minutes of labor to go buy a burger and fries, and that it'd be stupid for me to buy a $100,000 pickup because that'd cost me a full year and a half of labor. But the Ford dealership isn't going to let me work in the shop for a year and a half in exchange for a Ford F-450; they'll work with a financing company to cheerfully let me drown myself in debt. And they take those worthless greenbacks because their employees can use those worthless greenbacks to buy stuff.

Besides, the true worth of gold is that it doesn't corrode, and it's an excellent electrical conductor. It's far more valuable inside electronic items, so that we can shitpost.

so that we can shitpost.

Well, you've got some crazy ideas here but it really came together at the end

I liked the bit about shitposting. Really made me stop and think, y'know?

The computational power it requires to post a shitpost is probably higher than the computational power that was required for the Apollo program to go to the moon.

I'm willing to donate all of my reddit karma to charity, if that helps.

There are starving children in Africa who can't even access /r/CenturyClub and here we are, jerking each other off about how unimportant karma is

starving children in Africa who can't even access /r/CenturyClub

I'd donate my CC membership before I share my food tbh

Because people still let me buy gold and bittickets with it?

DUDE INFLATION LMAO

I protest! An imaginary internet point is a complex complex internet point that can be written as a real internet point multiplied by the imaginary unit i, which is defined by its property i2 = −1.

quaternion internet points when

Imaginary internet points to the left

Doesn't the new Reddit thing not allow you to see your karma?

When can I start spending them like my credit card points? Every time I try some asshole bans me.

Do you use your credit card points? Am I missing out on something?

Yours doesn't?

I have some vague understanding of my points.

They are not imaginary because they arent represented as sqrt(-1).
This post was made by math gang.

Can I cash my imaginary points for 0.0001 Bitcoin?

im gunna use my karma to buy a farm one day, you guys can come to my karma-farm and meet the karma-farmer.

Can we just call it an up-bussy and down-bussy?

Pure autism right there

Imaginary internet points from Reddit is worthless irl but gives you a warm little glow that you might not be as worthless even though you are.

I believe the correct term would be tangible value. My bank balance has tangible value I can use it to buy goods and services and withdraw it from the bank. Internet points are not imaginary they are intangible like your penis. We know they exist but lack physical substance, unable to be touched or grasped, and not having a physical presence.

Worthless internet points

I took away one of your real internet points for this post. 😎

Internet points is an indication of how well you would do in society if you were handsome.

This is the stupidest thread in all of Reddit history.

it's imaginary because it's irrelevant and doesn't mean shit

It means people like what you have to say. Whether or not that matters is up to the individual.

That doesn't do anything for me though. If people like what I have to say that doesn't somehow validate my life

True

Imaginary neck yourself

But enough about BitCoin!

You can sell accounts with certain ammounts of internet points (I think some common cutoffs are 10k, 50k, 100k combined karma) to online promotion agencies.
Those prices establish a baseline karma:usd value. Checkmate, atheists.

found the guy who deletes his comments when they get a low score

I never called them imaginary, just worthless.

as i have more internet points than you i feel my opinion is worth more. and my opinion is that they're imaginary

checkmate low-karmacels

it's just pixels on a screen

They're not imaginary because they're digital. They're imaginary because they're not worth anything in the real world. And yes, everyone says you can sell your acct for money, but the overwhelming majority of people will never do so.

I've checked the marketplace and selling an account with high karma only gives you like 80 bucks.

Define high karma because if I can make money shitposting on reddit I will have finally found my purpose.

Flipped bits on a disk. I'm an absurdist at heart.

So if I fuck my imaginary friend, am I no longer a virgin?

My bank balance has actual value

Imagine having ama in your name unironically

Your bank balance is imaginary, too. We just pretend it isn't.

They're not imaginary, but they are very much close to valueless, they have no inherent properties beyond increasing visibility and cannot be traded in or any such thing.

This is good for bitcoin.

Imagine...

The state of ledditors

I am glad I am not alone

They’re as real as those magic beans people keep buying. Buttcoin or whatever.

Don't let it bother you. Who ever said that is obviously imaginary.

It's imaginary, but the value you give to them is real.

Which is why it's retarded.

Especially since apparently the karma system isn't even about liking someone's comment.

Come back to r/mememods, pussy

Some people care too much about Internet points. If we lived in a Black Mirror, The Orville, or Chinese society, that'd be a big deal. But since the Internet points here is just a bragging thing, 'imaginary' is there to mock the person who is retarded enough to care. I mean, I guess if you get enough negative points your account could get shadowbanned or some shit.

Money can buy goods and services.

Imaginary internet points can buy me exactly nothing.

• They are not in a physical state at any time.

• Their usage is purely for a single Website.

• They have no value for any reason.

• Survey says: Imaginary internet points.

I'm not arguing about the value, just the fact that they exist.

I mean, I parlayed my internet points into a job, soooooooooo yeah

Selling the boxer briefs you wore at the gym to middle aged gay men isn't really a job per se. More of a sideline or a hustle.

You're just jealous that I found a market

Pssh, take this imaginary mean comment and shove it up your ass.

Never listen to an account younger than yours.

i bet you posted this for imaginary internet points

1 upvote is worth more than 1 USD

Why do these shitposts keep getting created and upvoted instead of real reddit drama

Not my fault it was stickied.

I asked the mods to make an automoderator rule to remove posts that mention imaginary points, for 'teH lulz', but instead they just stickied it.

Replace imaginary with worthless

nice blogpost, faggot

Nope. It's fucking stupid to care that much.
