Just curious on what makes it “abuse” over just being posts people don’t like?
Some instances have downvotes turned off entirely
Some communities ban you just for a downvote
edit a brief scroll of your post history, the only posts with semi equal up and down votes seem appropriate - such as posting manga to skyrim and asking for a mod
From what I can tell, this only prevents users native to that instance from downvoting anything. It doesn’t prevent anyone else from downvoting posts on the given instance.
My lemmynsfw profile can’t downvote anything, but my other profile that can see lemmynsfw posts can downvote them.
I wasn’t posting manga to skyrim, I was just asking for mod outfit suggestions to match the outfit in the manga and the context provided in the post is pretty obvious that I wasn’t just posting manga to skyrim mods
and I don’t know what you mean by asking for a mod because I don’t recall asking for a mod
And may I ask why you decided to go through my post history because it has nothing to do with this post

I assumed you felt you were having problems with your posts being downvoted regularly. Besides, your profile is completely public. Its fair game.
Assumption: you feel your posts are being brigaded. You provided zero other context.
You absolutely did ask for a mod. Literally in the title of your post

outfit mod is a mod. Not sure why you’re claiming an outfit mod isn’t a mod

and before you blame me. I have not voted on your posts or comments.

You didn’t even answer the question I asked on whether the downvotes are “valid” because people dont want the posts
I thought you where talking about mods as in moderators and not modifications
