Of course this also indicates that the current countermeasure may be ineffective, or maybe it wasn't below -3 when Yvain replied.

Perhaps it should just be impossible to reply to anything if there's more than two ancestors at -3 or below.
But then, the circumvention will be to stop using threaded comments properly and start new comment threads to reply to comments below the threshold.
Has anyone yet mentioned or reported that for the last couple days, the "karma for last 30 days" is showing zero for everyone? And that we no longer can see the top contributors for the last 30 days either?
Do we have an explanation or estimation for a bugfix on this?
