Just bringing this topic to the appropriate mailing list
On the last kernel meeting [1] it was suggested negative karma points
should
be linked to a reported bug which kinda makes sense if you think about
it.
What that means is that you ( as in reporter ) will no longer be able to provide negative karma without linking it to an already existing bug
report
either created by your or someone else if that came to be.
Is there such a surplus of people testing things and providing negative karma that it's acceptable to refuse any that doesn't come with a bug report? And is the pain of bugless negative karma so great that it will overcome the cost of an additional mandatory step in the karma reporting process?
I'm not seeing this as any additional obstacle for reporters seriously how harder is it to provide a link to a bug report vs filling in the comment field?
