If you get lucky with a couple story posts, yes. If you're strictly commenting you've got a while.

Yea maybe that is it, 200 karma from comments for downvote privilege.

That's how it is right now.

I like how there's plenty of examples of down voting and not discussing the reason on this thread.

I'm assuming you got down voted because it's just a flat karma value (I guess 200?) to allow down votes. They meant that your karma from submissions shouldn't count because it's trivially obtained.

Edit: Thanks for down voting this.
