Downvotes are not a reflection on you, they are a representation of how much everyone else agrees or disagrees.
I don't personally want the downvotes hidden or removed like how it is on Youtube.
they did remove downvotes on youtube tho :(
This is why I'm in favor. I'm not the hugest fan, but if the alternative is YouTube or facebooks like system then I'll take the downvotes. Otherwise you get the low quality like farms where minions memes are uploaded everywhere and there's no way to say "we hate these, stop posting them"
lol that is a very good point
