Thanks everyone!

Several days after I posted a suggestion that we rename the scoring system from "Karma", I was feeling kind of bad that my post had earned me nothing but downvotes.

Imagine my delight when I came to Less Wrong today and found my Karma Score to be 4,294,967,293. You guys are the best!

Not because it sounds mystical. Because the Bhuddist concept of reincarnation does not pertain here.

Yes it's common jargon. But can we be Less Wrong?

Having a "Karma Score" seems out of place on a site focused on rationality.

Sure, I'd like to know if my participation is valued by the others on the board. Let's not call it Karma though.
