A user just got stripped of all his points and levels for downvoting. I disagree with this policy but lets see what poal has to say.

Yes. The current policy is best. Leave as is.
No. The current policy is gay. Allow downvoting
Fuck You!

People intuitively use the downvote system to show dissent.

What does downvoting accomplish other than validating your own sperg ego?

Metrics mostly

Metrics? What are you a fucking data analyst?

Christ, the Voat migration here is looking to be as gay and annoying as the T_D migration was from reddit to Voat.

I'll wait for your counter-argument if you have one.

I've made the argument several times. Downvotes are abused by spergs and alts. Reddit uses downvotes and it's a shithole. /pol/ and the rest of 4chan have never used up or downvotes, and they're fine, probably better in a lot of ways than voat or poal.

The only people who want/need downvotes are fags. Upvotes bring popular stuff to the top, then you just ignore the rest if you want. See something you don't like? Close your nigger eyes.

"REEEEE BUT I WANNA DOWNVOTE IT SO PPL KEN SEE I DUN LIKE IT!!!"

Holy, what a little girl.

"It's analytical and metrical and numbers and I'm a smart person"

Lol, what a midwit.
