UncleYoda Posted June 9 Report Posted June 9 Why do we not get notification, or a way to view, who up/down votes our posts in Tech Discussion? Quote

WRYZ926 Posted June 9 Report Posted June 9 Imagine the chaos if a certain person knew who keeps down voting all of his posts As of now he can only point his finger at everyone on the forum. WRUU653 and SteveShannon 2 Quote

IMO, that violates the rules anyway. I won't argue that point. But when someone is always negative and/or hateful with every single reply then they are going to get down voted.

IMO, that violates the rules anyway. The only person well enough known to be upvoted or downvoted just because of “who they are” is Randy, and for the most part I don’t think many (if any) people have downvoted him because of that. SoCalGMRS gets downvoted because of how he treats others, not because of who he is. If he stopped treating others that way the downvotes would quickly cease. It’s that simple.

WRUU653 Posted June 10 Report Posted June 10 Other than the one negative person whom we all know which as @SteveShannon mentioned is not because of who they are but rather the stuff they say I don’t see down voting based on who someone is. Could it happen? Sure but someone would just up vote them back. It’s just a means to elevate the best technical answer. I do prefer reading things in chronological order though as it’s easier for context and it would be nice if you could make that a default setting. SteveShannon and WRHS218 2 Quote
