Did either of you perhaps post in any of the threads replying to billswift?
Yes. I think someone downvoted extra comments elsewhere for effect based on the magnitude and speed of the karma hit.
Yes, it looks like almost all the comments related to the government policy issue got downvoted. This is annoying in that, I at least thought that it was a calm, rational discussion which was showing that political discussion isn't necessarily mind-killing. I'm particularly perplexed by the downvoting of comments which consisted of either interesting non-standard ideas or of comments which included evidence of claims.
It must be a relatively high karma user given the fact that downvotes are limited by total karma. Perhaps they'd care to explain themselves.
The downvote limit is 4 times your karma yes? So if the total downvote for the thread was around 60 points, the individual would only need to be around 15 karma.
Yes. It was originally equal to your karma but some of us had already spent that many downvotes and the point of the policy wasn't to stop established users from being able to downvote.
I'm not sure. I've never actually run into it.
