Bug Description
ATM, karma value is a bit of a pinball score : nobody really cares about the last 3 numbers. When you have2000 of Karma and you saw someone with 2900, you think : well, we have nearly the same karma ! (altought there is 150% more work !)
There is also a too big difference between top5 (150 000 !!) and
someone who translate one or two sentence every day (150). I know that the work is not the same, but I think it's really encouraging when you can grow quickly at first.
In this aspect, the karma system of GNOME bugzilla works very well. Best contributor have 25-26. Experienced users have 14-15 but you quickly go from 0 to 5 then to 10 if you are regular.
Displaying the Log is IMHO a real reward for new contributor. Then, each step becomes harder and you want to work harder and harder without noticing it.

though it would hide bugs in the karma code, so we might not want to do it for a while yet.
