Diogo asked: How do you fell about being downvoted on primary elections? Some people had a lot of downvotes even having a lot of edits/flags and activity that already helped on superuser.. What do you consider that is being the largest difference on these cases?
- Ivo Flipse noted: Its probably important that the candidates don't take the voting personal. Just because I don't think someone is suited to be a moderator doesn't mean I dislike them as a person.
DragonLord answered: It might just come down to the overall participation of the user, not just in moderating activities.
Daniel Beck answered: I accept it and move on. Moderating involves making hard decisions that annoy people, so it's only getting worse than the few downvotes I got.
soandos answered: It does not bother me. I think there are other great people for the job, and if they win SU will still be a great place. I don't think any of the votes were personally motivated
