Jan 23, 2018 at 1:52 | comment | added | muru | @fixit7 the difference is this - if someone is downvoting everyone one of your posts just because you posted it, that is indeed downvoting the user. But if someone downvoted just some particular post because of some perceived issue, that's downvoting just the post. | |
Jan 22, 2018 at 21:56 | comment | added | fixit7 | The user makes the post. So down voting post = down voting poster. I won't take it personal. Some people may be having a bad day. :-) | |
Jan 22, 2018 at 21:14 | comment | added | Zanna Mod | @fixit7 downvoting is not personal - we are not downvoting the user, but the post. Maybe someone thought your question is not useful to the site for some reason, or maybe Tim Post just lost his keys | |
Jan 22, 2018 at 21:03 | comment | added | fixit7 | So, if someone didn't like my post for whatever reason, they downvote it? I personally would not down vote someone unless they were belligerent and/or showed absolutely no effort. | |

Added what voting is

Jan 22, 2018 at 10:02 | comment | added | Mark Kirby | @fixit7 You can vote questions and answers up or down, up voting adds rep and down voting takes it away. You lose 2 points if someone votes a post of yours down, you lose 2 rep, up you gain 5, 10 on answers. | |
