- wmichelin 9y agoNoob question (I've been on HN for over 2 years but I suppose I don't have enough "karma" to do so), but how can one downvote posts?
- grzm 9y agoWhile comments can be flagged and/or downvoted, submissions can only be flagged. There's a karma threshold to flag submissions—offhand I don't recall what it is. From the FAQ (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html): > Why don't I see down arrows? > There are no down arrows on stories. They appear on comments after users reach a certain karma threshold, but never on direct replies.
