Mar 3, 2013 at 2:41 comment added Seth @Private I have noticed you near the top of the voters recently. Keep up the good work! Also: Don't delete this thread. Throughout the SE world you will be downvoted sometimes. I have learned not to take this personally, they aren't downvoting you but your post or idea. After all this is meta ;)
Mar 3, 2013 at 1:10 comment added RobotHumans To be fair, I didn't downvote the question. @FEichinger . If it got to 4-20 I might...but short of that...no.
Mar 3, 2013 at 1:09 comment added user98085 @AbrahamVanHelpsing must ... resist ... downvoting :P
Mar 3, 2013 at 0:52 comment added RobotHumans Don't delete it. I'ld love to be the first meta.askubuntu.com/badges/55/reversal
Mar 2, 2013 at 7:34 comment added don.joey @all Thanks for the replies! I have a learnt a lot from this thread (even though I am tempted to delete it :)
Mar 2, 2013 at 7:33 comment added don.joey @Seth You are actually one of the reasons I asked this question. :) I saw how generous on votes you are and I thought that might be a good thing for the community.
Mar 2, 2013 at 7:30 comment added don.joey @Tachyons :D You read my mind. I should have asked When do you upvote a question? On the other hand, this is meta, the downvotes might suggest disagreement rather than unusefulness or lack of clarity.
Mar 2, 2013 at 3:34 comment added Tachyons Irony is that this meta question have -1 vote and answers have 5+ upvotes :p
Mar 2, 2013 at 0:24 comment added RobotHumans @Seth - I think the downvote isn't "invalid question" it's "does this really need discussion". I provided an example counterpoint in my answer. I think the voting is probably to exacerbate how incorrect the opinion portrayed in the question is according to voters (each answer should be an upvote)

Mar 1, 2013 at 20:55 comment added Seth @vasa1 We come to the fuzzy line where you have to decide for yourself whether it is worth a vote or not. I am very lax in my standards for voting, but others aren't. I must say, I don't see why this perfectly valid meta question has so many downvotes...

Mar 1, 2013 at 14:52 comment added don.joey @vasa1 I think it does deserve an upvote (and I voted it). It is both clear and useful for future users with the same problem.
Mar 1, 2013 at 14:51 comment added don.joey @BrunoPereira I don't think that's what I want to say. I want to say: if a question is worth an answer, is it then also not worth of an upvote?
