The 10 karma requirement to make your own posts on this forum makes it difficult for new people to share their own ideas here. Perhaps reducing it to 2 would be better.
I’ve been aware of this forum for a few months and have checked back to it a couple dozen times, but still don’t have 10 karma because searching out for posts where you can make insightful comments to get 10 upvotes isn’t actually that easy or quick.
We actually already took it down to 5 at Ryan’s request. :) It’s probably a good idea to get that (re)announced in the post about the Forum you’re working on Peter. But William’s post makes me think that’s no longer in effect—can you confirm William?
This is a good point. The EA Forum people have been working on bringing the karma requirement down further. More updates soon.
In the meantime, William makes the case for the rest of us to be biased in favor of upvoting more often. I myself upvote almost every reply I receive, and upvote any comment from which I learn something, even if I’m not personally invested or interested in that particular thread.

Cool, thanks. Some people just brought me up to 10 Karma, so I’m going to write a post on one idea tonight and publish it here.

I’m not sure I agree, that would lose some of the information signal of upvotes.
