Which - to me - is a good thing.

Do not know what downvotes are.

For me it's categorizing radical ideologies correctly. I just hate people throwing around buzzwords, calling anyone a communist/fascist they disagree with. Those words have meanings. You can actually be worse then the fascists and still not be one, it's not impossible. You can still be hated for that, but you didn't automatically become one, because you are right-wing and coincidentally an asshole. But the moment someome calls you a fascist, while you're just an asshole, their opinon automatically becomes invalid and wrong.

I turned off vote display and rarely miss seeing the votes. See also Facebook Demetricator.

After eighteen Days you are still without a downvote, btw.

Yeah, it's the strange thing about engaging post titles - people seem to be so busy answering them, they 'forget' to also upvote them. In contrast, a meme that's funny but about which there's not much to say, is more likely to get an upvote as some kind of compensation for the lack of discussion.

If a post is interesting enough to write a comment, it also deserves an upvote.

Its a silly system that only worked on reddit for a short while. If you are old enough you’d know that already from slaahdot karma development/history

/. 's moderation is the closest any moderation will get to 'adequate at best', but vastly imperfect.
