I don't think we'll be able to avoid it in any site where users can do their own voting. It's best to just shrug and keep doing what you've been doing.
It would be harder to do here due to simultaneously posting to multiple tribes, but on Reddit it is possible to turn off downvotes with an individual subreddit's CSS.
yeah, that's why i was never active on reddit i hate down votes for no reason. If this will not get better i don't see me getting old on this site.

True but you can make it harder. Right now there is no responsibility. I made a suggestion in the down vote thread, lets see what the bosses thing about it. :) http://snapzu.com/t/blog/tribepost/M3AUCDB/up...ll-sub-systems-dependent-on-it/comments/24912
