My entire self-esteem is based on my rep points. What you think of my posts without ever knowing much about me really lays the foundation for how I see myself. I so desperately want you to like me.

I know what you mean. I get downvoted and I can't sleep for a week.

Downvoting is not the issue, it's the fact people vote to close accounts that gets my goat.

Down voting, not a problem, keep getting banned, pain in the arse.
There comes a point where you can't be arsed getting your account reinstated again.

A couple of general questions:
- Why can't I downvote any posts? Not that I want to, but just wondering if I need a certain level of CP'd-ness (TM ) to be able to do it?
- How can I see if anyone has downvoted me anywhere?
This is how wars start!

1) You can't downvote in the Lounge, or some other forums - nobody can. Hence when the thin-skinned get upset, they resort to "abuse" votes instead. This was to prevent the "sea of grey" that washed across the forum from time to time (and caused complaints and speculative revenge downvotes). There is no UberCP level which allows downvotes (except Staff and Admin, but their abuse vote kills your account...)
2) You can check the recent reputation events for your account by clicking on the current reputation score at the top right of every page. This shows abuse and downvotes. But it won't show you who did it, to prevent tit-for-tat abusing.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Thanks for the explanation.
Luckily I don't think I've received any abuse reports on my posts but now I've said that, I've probably gone and invited it!

Some people are thin-skinned; some posts are abusive.
There isn't always a correlation between the two.
|
|

Even Protectors are reporting members[^] as abusive for the weakest of reasons, it's all very sad. The attitude seems to be "I'll report you for the smallest of reasons, if your account gets closed you can go to Bugs & Sugs and ask for it to be re-opened" They don't even seem to understand that that is arse about face.

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes ? is a very old song, at least eighteen-hundred years old, in fact, but the conundrum it expresses is must be as old as dirt.

Gentlemen,
I suggest moving this post and comments thread to the Soapbox (in case you gonna keep/continue this “personal vendetta” sort of), or delete it entirely.
Thanks and regards,
PS. For added clarity, I am primarily talking to the post originator and the one direct responder. On a separate note, I would expect you to demonstrate a sort of mutual respect and adhere to the norms of online ethics, which also include the careful use of any administrative power delegated to you (such as spam/abuse reporting). Thanks for the understanding.
