Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

Agreed, to an extent. As long as they can be disabled so they don't clog up your feed, awards are a decent way to show your support. The problem with Reddit was they started to put far too much focus on useless awards and avatars, and not on actually improving the user experience.
