Future requests

Base the ranks on Karma amount and only allow moderators (and perhaps high ranked users) to distribute karma. This way, karma could be used as moderation system and users will act different to receive karma, instaid of spamming to receive a great amount of posts. “Karma fishing” will appear aswell, but thats way much better, than spamming.
