Can we hardcode no-karma for any posts with "xkcd" in the title? I honestly think that's really fair. People might want an XKCD once in a while on the front page if it's really good, and comment on it, but I don't think the submitter should get credit since we all read XKCD anyways.

P.S. Notice I'm not proposing we set no-karma for xkcd.com related entries. Sometimes a thoughtful and non-comical (literally) entry from the xkcd blag is posted.



The good XKCDs deserve karma. Many of them are rather dull comics, but today's is pretty golden.


But everyone will have a different opinion on which ones ARE good. Even this one.


I've got an idea! We can vote, and only the ones that lots of people agree are good go on the front page.
