Uhmm... we have a voting system here at Hacker News. If you don't like stories you can vote them down, just like everyone else.

- awt 17y agoWell, you can just not vote on them. But that's just as good.
- simonk 17y agoActually you can't vote stories down just flag them.
- blhack 17y agoActually flagging stories is supposed to be for reporting spam, not for saying that you disapprove of them.
- danskil 17y agowhat rank do you need to have to down vote something?
- heyitsnick 17y agoI would like an answer to this. There's all this talk of down-voting submissions and user comments but i don't have this option.
- cmelbye 17y agoI think flagging submissions is 100 or 150, and downvoting comments is 200. One can't downvote submissions, only flagging.
- sorbus 17y agoFlagging is under 100; I'm able to right now, at 81, and have been able to for a while. Perhaps 50 or 75? I don't recall exactly when it showed up.
- cmelbye 17y agoOkay, maybe it's 50 then, can't remember. I'm also wondering when topcolor becomes available. I have 250 right now, and I thought that the threshold for topcolor was 250 but I guess not.
