    I’m not complaining about downvotes in general. I dislike people who downvote people who mention downvoting (like the two I call out in the above comment) and people who downvote every comment in a thread just because their own comment was downvoted (like bigtyme who i’ve noticed a bunch of times downvoting entire threads just because someone downvoted him).

    Neither of those things are conducive to a social web with a small population.

      It is imo much more disturbing to see people publicly call out their downvoters and provoke a witch hunt. If any, that behaviour is antisocial and most definitely downvote-worthy.

      I downvote people I disagree with and upvote people I agree with. I don’t even check if people downvote me because I don’t give a shit. My comment has 13 upvotes, I don’t even give a shit to check the ratio because I’m just going to assume only 13 people read the comment and bothered to upvote it.

      You’re acting like a child. Drawing a false conclusion, stalking me apparently, and whining about something that will be forgotten in a day. I’ve also upvoted people, but I guess you’re a bad stalker. FYI I downvoted your little baby rant.

      Fucking pathetic.

      Ah okay that makes sense then. I’d seen some comments from other people on here about not downvoting as a dislike button, and I thought that’s what you were saying as well, but it wasn’t.
