Ask HN: How do I downvote?
Hi all - been here for a while - but never worked out how to down vote? What am I missing?
Thanks!
- phlux 16y agoYou have to say things people like enough for them to upvote you 500 times. Then you're accepted into the pack and given the keys to the downvote button... but it only works on comments. You're not allowed to downvote stories.
- geoffw8 16y agoOh I see. That explains it! I always wondered what the number was next to my user. Thanks!
- mkr-hn 16y ago500 karma It's easy to reach. Just say enough interesting, informative, or entertaining things to convince people that you're worth attention. Then spend 500-1000 seeing if people catch on.
- adolph 16y agoDown-voting is over-rated. The only think you are missing is these little gray down arrows all over the place. Here's a link and an up-vote in case you want to add some. http://ycombinator.com/images/graydown.gif http://ycombinator.com/images/graydown.gif

- profitbaron 16y agoI was able to submit after having 10 Karma points
- BobKabob 16y agoYou can submit stories with a new account. Press submit at the top. You can also link to your site in the comments (although it better be relevant to the discussion, or you'll probably get voted down into oblivion as spam!)
