    You have point but on the other side, its goal is to avoid karma farming and help mods, admins for creating a serene place for discussion.

    There is two distinct score : reputation, attitude.

    • Reputation is people’s reaction to your comment and post.
    • attitude is how you vote. If you do mass downvote, your ability to downvote is removed until you reach a balance between upvote/downvote.

    When we post a gif, and everyone laugh, it’s easy to get a good reputation whereas elsewhere, i might post several terrible comments. That’s why posting gif doesn’t credit you reputation. You can’t use gif to bypass bad comment and get a good reputation.

    That’s why it works like that.
