> Being flagged / downvoted by users isn't "manipulated" Did you even read the comment? > even-though it had the first spot with 30 upvotes The comment had upvotes and a mod confirmed that the ranking was later manipulated, meaning it didn't lose ranking because of down votes. My lord, it's one think when people just read article titles and skip the actual article, but it's incredibly immature and perplexing when people just read the first line of a comment! Please don't jump to criticism and read the things properly, if not, try to refrain from commenting .
