It's a "feature" of the code that you can reduce your own karma faster than anyone else (that is not a moderator) can.
It's all in the source.
Since Karma isn't really used for anything around here, I figured hey, why not...
Wow. I followed your link. Does that stuff actually make sense to people?
I thought I'd give my 2 cents in the Karma discussion:
The key to getting karma (besides the obvious good, information-laden posts) is being nice to everybody else, giving others karma, and telling them when you gave them karma. The secret is the last part, once you tell them it was you who gave it to them they feel so good about your good will that they return the favor (hence the name: karma).
