Hacker News Reader

For what it's worth, my account is older by ~7 months and I'm not yet halfway there.

Okay interesting, I thought I was alone. Guess there's a lot of us "noncontributors" on here haha.

Or "occasional" contributors. My biggest problem is I am often reading the comments a couple of days later and the discussion is no longer active.

This is a real problem. I noticed that all my (infinitesimal) karma was received on comments which were a few hours old.

The brilliant comments which are 1+ day old all went to a blackhole nirvana.
