There are upvote/downvote buttons -- I'm unsure why any other criteria is needed.

There are upvote/downvote buttons -- I'm unsure why any other criteria is needed.
- theandrewbailey 10y agoI was unaware that stories could be downvoted, or I lack the karma to do so.
- soared 10y agoYou need 500 karma to downvote.
- ChrisClark 10y ago1225 karma here and I still can't downvote stories, just comments.
- detaro 10y agothat's for comments, downvotes for stories don't exist.
- newjersey 10y agoI am not complaining. I don't trust myself with the responsibility anyway but I have 500+ and I cannot down vote stories. I used to avoid voting on comments on my phone for a while because I was afraid I'd end up downing with my fat fingers but they've fixed it with an undown link when I down vote. Maybe they've relieved me from the responsibility of down voting stories? I don't know how I feel about down voting because there is always a desire to down vote dissenting opinion. tl;dr that's for comments afaik
- gergles 10y agoYou can 'flag' stories with 500 karma, which is basically a super-downvote in the sense that a flag suggests the story doesn't belong on HN at all. My sense is that it is a much stronger signal than a comment downvote.
