[quote]I think you're REALLLLLY reading too much into my post, man. When I first saw the thread, I noticed that it had only a couple replies but had been downvoted to zero. And the OP wasn't offensive like.. at all. So I took the opportunity to point out how silly some folks are. The second comment was actually intended to egg people into downvoting my post for laughs..[/quote] I was more referring to the first part of your post. I just find it odd that both you, and Max, care enough about downvotes on this site to point them out. I don't think either of you are, like, being brought to tears by them or anything, but you both obviously care to [i]some[/i] extent or you wouldn't post about it. I'm honestly really curious as to the reasoning behind the care. My asking this time isn't meant to be offensive (though, I was admittedly poking fun at both of you in my previous post); I'm just not sure why the nature of downvotes on this site elicits a response from y'all when they mean even less here than they do on Reddit.

I.. I'm honestly at a loss here and don't know how to respond to this. It was just a funny post... Do I have a habit of mentioning the voting system that I'm not noticing or something?

It's just something I've noticed brought up as of late from both you and Max. I found it odd because [i]nobody[/i] ever mentions the voting system here from my experience (or at least not the downvote part of it), so I asked why the sudden interest out of sheer curiosity. Meant no harm.

No worries, you just had me really confused for a second there haha. But nah, the voting system here is little more than a "hey, I like your post!" button. Same with the mostly pointless follower system in place. I don't put any concern into it. And I think the voting and "like" system takes a lot of discussion off the boards. Not personally a fan of any of them. I just saw the zero and thought it was funny that someone was running around downvoting for no reason. Probably wouldn't have even posted at all if it wasn't Pureey's thread. He's a swell guy.
