Getting about 10 karma from introductory posts in the Welcome to LW threads wouldn't be hard. Also people can publish a draft in comment form or just ask for karma in order to write a particular article.

What do you think of the idea in general, for some other karma limit? Perhaps 500 which is probably close to what the average LWer has.

I like it but then again I have around a thousand karma so it wouldn't impact me very hard. On the other hand, I don't think it does a lot of work to actually fix the Monkeymind situation that EY and company seem to be so distressed by.

I'm not at all convinced the Monkeymind situation is nearly as serious a problem as EY and company seem to think.
