Did you mean to quote: "Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading. " And I typically agree with that, except in this instance I decided to make a brief comment, because I disagreed with you somewhat strongly. There's nothing in the actual guidelines about downvoting for disagreement; though the balance of the HN guidelines seem to be in favor of commenting in reply to a thoughtful comment. "Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive. " ... and ... "Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something. " What can be less thoughtful, substantive, or deep than a naked downvote?
