Indeed, either we should scrap downvote button completely or if you wanna use it, you would need to provide reason for downvoting at least let's say 50 characters long.

It's shame posting limits or comment/post throttling is not clearly communicated and we have to only guess, for instance I am pretty sure the cap is even lower than shown, you can get downvoted into oblivion and not just -4, which
