Description
After installing and enabling the plugin, we were unable to have poorly ranked comments and/or nodes disappear from anon or untrusted users. Also, as reported by other users, trusted users are unable to hide low-rated comments.
The following link also shows that a core patch must be applied to have this module properly filter comments, but no reference is given as to what and where. Perhaps some elaboration:
http://drupal.org/node/62944
Given that the module is not functioning as per its purpose, this issue is marked as critical.

Hello Drumm,
Has this issue been worked on? Maybe it would be marked as "closed" if it has!
Thanks!
Merc.

No, this issue isn't closed, and won't be until http://drupal.org/node/147725 makes it into core. Assuming 5.2 is released with this patch, I will eventually have a 5.x version of this module up that will allow karma to run properly. The patch has already been committed to HEAD and so this won't be a problem with 6.x.
Also, unless the above patch gets further backported, karma will never be officially released for 4.7. It mostly works, but to hide low-threshold comments, a core hack to comment.module is required. (The hack is very similar to the above patch.)

What this solved with drupal 5.2? I make a new install and seems that not.
Any info? Great module by the way ;).
#4
Alas, the above issue was not fixed in 5.2. Which means that Karma won't be ready for prime-time, hack-free, until Drupal 6.

It's the patch attached to this comment, but beware that it's still considered 'code needs review':
