          I don’t know how delete and not delete work for comments. Sorry for the dumb.

          My deleted comment was: I suppose it could be a secondary “score” tied to how often users post here in A positive manner?

              I like both those ideas but also what comrade Red Wizard said in their comment. Especially sending users to communism101 when in bad standing with the grad credit score lol

              You should only get a point if someone replies to your comment or post with “China Good!” and it should remove two points if someone replies to your comment with “China Bad!” Users from the grad can cast votes for both Good and Bad with their comments, while everyone else can only cast Good votes (one vote for a post per user via top-level-comment, and one vote per comment per user) Users from the grad start with +100 points and users not from the grad start with -100 points. There are no point caps. The bot replies with your score if someone replies to your post or comments with “Show me your papers comrade!” Otherwise, it just silently tabulates your score.

              What does the bot do with your score? Who can say, it’s not for us to know! I’ve heard rumors that it commands an army of bots to upvote your posts if you’re in good standing. I’ve also heard rumors that if your score is too low, the only community you can view is !communism101@lemmygrad.ml. Some say the scores are made up and the points don’t matter! (it actually just does nothing with it unless someone tries to see your score lol, or if you DM it with a Show-Score command)
