Kickstarter's staff is full of self-embracing hipster narcissists. They don't deserve the success they've had with old school video games. I personally know some of the people involved in these million-dollar campaigns, and Kickstarter has treated them with indifference at best. Real world Karma doesn't come from clicking a DOM element, but real world Karma will be visiting Kickstarter soon. It's already showing in the rise of competitors that would not have stood a chance if a this self-satisfied narcissistic bunch was not in charge of Kickstarter. The trouble with competitors is they don't understand the internal, gamified elements of the backer-base.
