That's what I was thinking, is karma really worth the time and effort?
I understand how it helps the forum work well, but for the user doesn't seem much more than a vanity feature. Being able to flag/downvote is something I really don't care about.

Score on particular posts is a signal rather than a reward, IMO, and, no, if you are expending effort specifically in order to boost your karma score, its probably not worth it.
