I noticed there is a karma point threshold for flagging, and one of my friends said that he can't change the color of his top nav bar but I can. Are there any other cool tricks that get unlocked as your karma grows?
After 20,000 you gain skills to host your own copy of HN. So far that's only two people - pg himself and nickb. nickb's site is here: http://www.newmogul.com/
Sometimes I wonder how did pg get his 20,000 points before there even was HN. It's kind of recursive, right? I think some sort of leveraged borrowing was involved.
Man! I want 250 points now. Just 233 points away . . .
Of course I pretty much associate the orange and gray with HN, so I'll probably get 250, and say "YES! I can change my top bar color!" and then try to decide what color to use for 10 minutes and leave it the same.
Yeah, I thought about that as an option. I actually used Firefox Web Developer Toolbar (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60 it does everything!) to see what it looked like w/ #f6f6ef as parenthesis says he uses.
