I think it's the derivative of one's karma that really matters.
(Even more specifically in my case, it appears to be something like the logarithmic derivative of individual comments that I really care about...)
The comparative karma of my comments to the surrounding comments also seems to matter to me. Specifically if am arguing with someone who is saying something transparently logically absurd and their comments are higher than mine it invokes both disgust and contempt.
Yes, that too.
In fact, since the default tendency is for descendant comments to score lower than their parents, I find it particularly insulting whenever a direct reply to one of my comments has a higher score (if there is any challenge or disagreement involved).
You know saying that is just begging people to find clever self-referential ways of making that happen.
Nice try.
BTW, I wonder if the “karma for the last 30 days” meter counts the karma for stuff which I wrote in the last 30 days, or for whatever was up/downvoted in the same period, no matter how long ago I wrote it.
It was the former for a short while and is now the latter.
