Not sure who in the heck downvoted this, but I proposed a simple solution for the community that would help us explore these types of topics on each post.
Called - "Proposal: HWIGS HN: How would I get started".

Edit 1: For whatever reason, this comment seems to be a battleground. Been upvoted & downvoted so many times. Guess this comment symbolizes the struggle for those of us interested in preserving the quality of the community we have come to love, and with those that just love to downvote willy nilly.
- belbn 14y agoI was under the impression you aren't able to downvote on this site. In the same way this site is Reddit except the fact you can't react negatively to anything (downvote), we now need to do the same for comments. You either upvote or you do nothing. You either comment positively or you don't comment. Excellent job patio.
- polyfractal 14y agoYou can downvote comments, assuming you have enough karma (100? 500? something like that). You can't downvote stories themselves, however.
- djt 14y agoI believe the threshold is 400 karma
- Mz 14y agoI keep hearing 500. It used to be 200.
- FireBeyond 14y agoAs someone with 408 karma, I suspect 500 is probably more accurate.
- Mz 14y agoThank you. Have an upvote. It was 200 for me, so I was not sure.
