> Karma was spent on voting, and was converted to unspendable clout. So there was a currency for voting.
I don't really understand this. Assuming that karma here worked similarly to karma on reddit, you got more of it when people voted on your comments or submissions, right? And then this was converted into clout, which is unspendable? What exactly is the currency for voting, then -- karma or clout? What is the purpose of the conversion? I might be dense right now due to a lack of sleep.

Yes, that's right. Also, everyone got a bit of karma deposited into their account each day. Clout was an indication of how much karma you had earned. Finally, the more clout and followers you had, the more karma that you would get each day. It's not just your lack of sleep. It was hella confusing.
