All my precious internet points are gone!

I check my profile here on the site an hour ago and I says I am level 2 with like 54 points.

Now I am back to level 0 with -100 points.

What did I do?

Just checked the logs and it says you've been naughty with the downvote on a specific user. This is an anti-brigading and vote targeting algorithm.

So, downvoting is punished with downvoting. Doesn't sound petty or hypocritical at all....

People are being punished for using the site's features.

The snowflakes running this site should just remove the downvote button if it hurts their feelings that much.

Unfortunately, you simpleton are unaware of how it is used by shill groups to control the message.

I don't think the people running this website are being snowflakes. I think they're trying to make sure small groups don't take control. They're trying to prevent vote-brigading. Maybe the system they chose sucks, but that's what I believe.

does it also show i unmarked those downvotes? i admit i was poking around at the voting system, but it was not malicious.

Just keep using poal and share interesting stuff, you'll get back on a positive score in no time.
