No one can downvote posts. Only comments can be downvoted, and then only if you have enough points.

I also can't downvote replies to my own comments, so I hope that wasn't directed at me.

Using the flagging feature as a form of downvoting seems, to me, as an inappropriate equivalent because flagging acts more like a super downvote and is more intended for notifying of posts that need to be removed because they violate rules in a certain way. > I also can't downvote replies to my own comments, so I hope that wasn't directed at me. Not directed at you (no one can downvote replies). It was just funny that less than a minute after posting I got a downvote. I had a good laugh and this was more intended as funny and not an attack on anyone. Sorry if it came off differently.
