Oh I'm wrong. You get all of ONE karma point to use for either a question (that will get closed) or one answer. Earning karma is fundamentally impossible for anyone who isn't living on SO.
You were wrong. Accept it, don't be so toxic.
I'm sorry, when did I ask you for tone-policing? You seem to be taking any criticism of SO as overblown, and your comments are dismissive of how many user's post of how they felt they were treated on SO.
This is false. You can post both questions and answers without any rep.
How people get the basics of SO wrong and still have such a strong opinion on how it works baffles me all the time.
