Not sure, but if I do that, I usually end up deleting my comments. Of course that’s not the only reason to delete comments. Ironically it’s for validation or to appear informed. (or get more karma)
Not to be overly snarky about it, but why ask a question in reddit about the habits of redditors. Not even the cosmos can answer that one.
People use Reddit as a social barometer to see if their thoughts are on the right track….. Kinda like this post
As an expert on this subject, I do it in hopes for some karma.
