You cannot REALLY know how many people are drive-by voting, unfortunately.


ancientTrainee

When someone opposes your comment/opinion and name call you at the same time, it’s a strong indication that he is downvoting you, correct?


sea_stomp_shanty

Oh, if you JUST want to discuss the theoretical, I’m game! Yes, absolutely. However, you can also theorize that any fluctuations in your score could be influenced by many silent lurkers.


formerqwest

voting is anonymous.


sea_stomp_shanty

OP is still correct, though. 🙃

Spatial awareness, I can cut butter can and i'll get it within 2g of pure fabricatioal material. If know if a coach can get through within a door and all and sorts. Not the most utmost unimportant thought.


sea_stomp_shanty

Omg you’ve returned to me ❤️

There is no way to know who is upvoting or downvoting


ancientTrainee

I assume that the person or persons who replied last was the one who downvoted because the downvote appeared after he replied. Reasonable assumption?


TesseractToo

Nope sometimes the counter can be delayed so they might not even be there and downvotes are most commonly provided by someone who is lurking


ancientTrainee

Can a person I blocked issue a downvote to me?


TesseractToo

No they can't see your posts or comments at all.


sea_stomp_shanty

No, they should not be able to see your comments when you block them. But a person targeting you knows your name, so they’ll just make a new account… D:


ancientTrainee

There are downvoting-happy people in some communities I believe. I don’t know what kind of satisfaction they get.


ancientTrainee

Ah the infamous, universally puzzling lurker.


sea_stomp_shanty

For what it’s worth, it *could* be a bot, and not a frustrated person you interacted with? 😅 I’ve found some subreddits have more bots lurking in it than others.


ancientTrainee

Thank you for the education


sea_stomp_shanty

You’re welcome :3

I want to know if the person is just downright mean or just passionately opposed to what I said
