    Very good points. I agree that downvotes need to be handled carefully. So far I've only been downvoted once and haven't doled out any myself, but I foresee some problems with the system.

    Have a great afternoon! I'm wondering if we should change the series title to something accommodating to everyone, as the site seems to have a large international representation.

    Edit: To clarify, downvotes should be reserved for spam, trolling, or otherwise unacceptable behavior (based on site and tribe rules). A differing opinion should not be downvoted; you can spite them by not upvoting.

      I don't count my downvotes, I say what's on my mind regardless. But even on Reddit, the only time I downvote is when someone is trolling blatantly. Rudeness, disagreement, I upvote those because I want people to see them. Echo chambers are boring, and honestly I picked this over Hubski because of that.

      Oh no please don't, it makes me feel like I still have a lot of day ahead of me! This is my Internet Morning™!
