How do I un-upvote something on HN?
I've accidentally upvoted the wrong HN article a couple times. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to undo my click. Am I missing something, or is my upvote permanent, even when it's unintentional?
- stackcollision 14y agoAny karma blessings you bestow on other articles/comments unintentionally are all part of the plan of the internet rep gods who nudged your cursor off target. +rep and be saved.
- sk2code 14y agoYou cannot un-upvote. I am exactly not sure but to do that you need to have certain amount of Karma points. Which I see you don't have currently.

- pg 14y agoSorry, I've never gotten around to implementing a way to do this. It doesn't seem too urgent a problem; I don't think a few mistaken votes have much effect.
- sk2code 14y agoThanks. I must have replied in a wrong way then. Somehow I though that everything is linked to the Karma. Thanks once again.
- matthuggins 14y agoNo worries, thanks for the response. Just wanted to make sure I'm not overlooking a feature. No harm in giving a little extra karma to things I'm personally not interested in. :)
- unimpressive 14y agoWhoops, I appear to have given you a downvote. I really wish I could fix that. It makes me really paranoid when I go to up or downvote people that I'll accidentally click the wrong one. EDIT: Since I appear to be able to still edit this, I would like to pose a question: Is the published HN source code current? If so; would you be willing to accept a patch in Arc to implement this feature? (Assuming the code was decent.)
