You need 500 pts to vote on HN

  I only have 63 points and I can vote (but rarely do). Actually I can only upvote. I think 500 is for downvote rights.

    You're right my bad. 500pts to downvote

      I wonder if that asymmetry is part of the problem. There's a large population of users who can push junk to the top of the page, and a much smaller population with the ability to downvote it.

        You can't downvote submissions; you can only flag them.
