The grace period is supposed to apply to comments, not posts (users can't post without karma, and users who registered less than two weeks ago probably shouldn't be posting anyway), while "karma coward" is supposed to apply to posts and not comments.
Ok, makes sense.
We can still implement both proposals, right?
And for proposal 2 I still recommend having an option to turn off the grace period manually.
Though having a karma-coward option for posts might end up reducing the average quality of the LW posts... if we implement this mode, then maybe there should be an option for readers to filter out non-promoted, karma-coward-mode posts.
oh, and will it still be possible for comments to be upvoted, while the user's grace period is active?
