I wonder if there's any provision against first downvoting then replying - I'd rather not downvote someone just to the this and I couldn't find any trace of that in the source code. But then again, my Lisp-fu is far from perfect, I might have missed it.
- apotheon 17y agoActually, I appear to have the ability to downvote both this comment of yours (which is in discussion following my comment above about "curiosity") and the comment just before my "curiosity" comment, so I don't think the "can't downvote something in a subthread to which you've replied" hypothesis holds much water. It seems, however, that I can't downvote the immediate response to my comment by the guy with 8000+ karma. This may mean that immediately following responses and/or people with 8000+ karma aren't within range of my downvote capabilities.
- nostrademons 17y agoIt's probably immediate responses. I can't downvote either yours or DrJokepu's responses, but I can downvote this comment.
- apotheon 17y agoExcellent! I think we've figured out the mechanism for prohibiting comment downvotes. . . . unless it's more complex than it at first seems. I don't really have the LISP Fu yet to figure it out from the source.
