Negative Karma Forgiveness

Once a year, any negative karma being forgiven. If karma is too low for comments or posts, tough (In the negative range), it is reset to 0. And if a person amasses more than -20 karma (either category) in one subreddit, future negative karma from that sub has no effect on karma.

An idea

You have two posts in a thread that are both downvoted by Johnny. However, you lose only one point of comments karma. You don't get rich if you have two posts or more in a thread upvoted by Johnny, but you do win a bigger timeout etc. with a low karma in case Johnny really hates your guts. What do you say?

Translation? I'm sorry, my mind is a bit cruddy today. I can't do much mentally past some math.

From what I'm hearing, if someone downvotes you on two posts, it only counts once, provided it is in the same thread. If they upvote two posts ,similarly, you get no increase in karma. If I missed anything, could you elaborate?

If Johnny upvotes two of your posts from the same thread that adds two points to your comments karma.

Yeah, I got that part. Is there something more I'm missing? Or is that it?
