My few posts were almost exclusively in my local sub and plant identification, I never had a post crack 1000. Almost all my karma came from comments. Since I also got the offer, I'm guessing the bar was set very low

Yep, same, think I had 65k karma, mostly from comments, got an email, also balked

I probably had at least a few million across all my accounts but still balked

Huh, I thought everyone received the email. Never made a single post on Reddit, only ever commented and still got the thing.

I think everyone got it out eventually, but I know they rolled it out in stages based on total karma. The more karma you had, the earlier you got the IPO email. And they didn't distinguish between post and comment karma. I had almost no post karma, but 402k comment karma (mostly from account age), so I got emailed pretty early.

I never got anything. But I use disposable emails to verify any accounts I made.
