What's the point in downvoting the answer that outlines the reasoning (with which no one is forced to agree) behind the changes? It seems utterly childish. Does the SO "community" cannot grasp the fact the site needs to sustain itself somehow?
- jstarfish 7y agoThis is the case on every single site that enables content placement by user sentiment. Downvotes are the digital tantrum.
- _kst_ 7y agoBy convention on Stack Overflow and other Stack Exchange sites, voting works differently on the meta.* sites. On the main sites, downvoting means "this is a bad question or answer" or "this answer is incorrect". On the meta sites, downvoting means "I disagree with this". https://meta.stackexchange.com/q/270/167210 https://meta.stackexchange.com/q/270/167210
