Feb 7, 2017 at 8:14 | comment | added | Journeyman Geek Mod | Downvotes arn't mean. Downvotes are the clean me scratched in the dusty car of a question. Personally most questions I find bad enough to downvote, I find bad enough to closevote or at least comment so op learns. If I get one, the kindest thing one can do is comment and let me know why so I can do better. | |

Second, forget the great scheme of things; a downvote has no value whatsoever. It is never helpful. It is a mean thing that we do to each other and I want to learn the rules of it. | |
