I really donât think the libertarian âif you donât like it, go somewhere elseâ works here as the EA forum is pretty much the place where EA discussions are held. Sure, they happen on twitter and reddit too but you have to admit itâs not the same. Most discussions start here and are then picked up there.
I agree with your other arguments, I donât want the culture of the site to drift too quickly because of a large influx of new folks. But why wouldnât a cut off be sufficient for that? I donât see why the power has to keep on increasing after, say, a 200 karma. Because at that point value lock-in might become an issue. Reminds me a bit of the average age of US senators being 64 years old. Not too dismiss the wisdom of experienced people, but insights from new folks is important too.
