I've been posting more comments lately just because I want to reach 1000 karma before my account reaches 1 year old not because I actually care about what I'm writing
What happens when you reach 1000 karma?
If you have 1000 karma you are considered popular.
I think wanting to reach 1000 karma is a fine goal to have. It's important to work toward things in your life, and if getting to 1000 karma makes you happy, then you should do it.
I'm going to reach that 1000 karma tomorrow.
It is great that you have a goal to get to 1000 karma. Just be sure that you do it according to the rule book. It would be terrible if you ended up being banned while chasing this goal.
