If you have negative karma and can’t post, this is because WE DON’T WANT YOU TO MAKE POSTS. This is as it should be.
So far, I very rarely see anyone making posts, getting downvoted, changing accounts, and making more posts on the same topic. As sockpuppetry isn’t that hard to detect, I think we would have a good idea if this was rampant. This would have to be an actual problem before I removed something I want from the forums to fix it.
The only case I can think of is that Dmytry/private_messaging guy who went through at least three accounts to keep on ranting and ranting about god knows what. I don’t know whether he stopped posted altogether or changed his behavior so as not to be such a nuisance, but in either case, mission accomplished!
