The post says that no user has more than 1,000 karma. But Peter_Hurford has more than 8,000 karma. I’m bringing this up not to quibble but rather because I’m wondering whether the threshold was meant to be set differently or perhaps users will lose some fraction of their karma during the switch.
Also, for link posts, I think it might be a good idea to require cross-posting the summary or an excerpt.
Yes, that is a little ambiguous. It is trying to say that no user is at the 3-point level (if you have 25,000 karma or more). Currently no user is above the 2-point level for regular up/downvote and 8-point for the strong up/downvote. We have no plans to adjust the karma in the switch.
Re link posts, that does seem like a good idea. We will be publishing a much more detailed ‘Proposed Moderation Standards’ post closer to launch.

That totally makes sense now. Thanks for the reply.
