Currently downvotes are enabled on a trial basis, this was done by me to see if they can be enabled to prevent spam from rising to the top of communities, along with the fact that is another form of interaction/feedback.

However I've gotten some pushback for this and so I'd like to see the general consensus of this decision. Please put any comments/concerns in this thread, and please vote here: (Link gone poll is done)

the results of this poll and the comments will determine if we keep or remove downvotes again

I don't need viewers. I choose to share content with users that like it but if you think I won't walk away from this instance over this and carry on with my life without looking back then you're mistaken.

You don't need viewers yet you're up in arms about the -1 vote button coming back?

What you have to do to actually win this argument is to tell me why I should bother to post anything when people are downvoting it.

What would motivate me to service the needs of people that hate the majority of content?

I don't care about winning against you or getting you to do anything, your opinions and actions after today are your own.

Suppressing down votes is something I disagree with, and I'm voicing those concerns.
