Not sure why was I down voted? A little explanation could help.

- erikpukinskis 9y agoI don’t know either, but it’s against the HN posting guidelines to inquire. It’s hard to know where sentiment comes from, I’d recommend not dwelling on it too long. Just keep writing comments you believe in.
- oehpr 9y agoThe problem is with no feedback, it can be hard to adjust in the right direction. And I'm not 100% sure of this, but I think downvotes on this platform have consequences beyond just hiding one comment. I've noticed ordering anomalies here where people who posted newer comments and had > 0 points were ranked below people who posted older comments and had <= 0 points. There was some intrinsic ranking going on.
- pknerd 9y agoThanks! I was not aware of it. It was just curiosity to find reason to correct myself rather than running for scores.
