This is regarding this specific discourse: http://askubuntu.com/questions/848885/how-do-i-get-newest-version-of-adobe-flashplayer/848903#848903 Before I ask, I should point out that I understand that not everyone will agree with every answer, and that downvoting is part of the process here. I accept that my post may get downvoted, regardless of if it is correct or not. **This is not a complaint**, but more of a question about etiquette. My question is this: *If I have provided an Answer and the OP has accepted it (even going so far as to comment that it worked), but the answer is being downvoted, what do I do?* As a member who has relatively low rep, I would normally just remove the answer I provided, especially if there is already another answer that explains it better than I can. My question is something I can find no rules for, and I'd like to know what I should do in this situation. Do I leave it, and risk losing more rep? (detrimental for a low rep user like myself) Or Do I remove it? I'll continue to edit it in the mean time. Hopefully I can reverse the votes :)
