There is not one reputation on a forum like this, where people don't engage in gossip about other users. You have as many reputations as many users are here. So even if somebody is downvoting your comments without reading them (by the way, are you sure about that?), it still doesn't mean that you can't lose more reputation.
Yes. (It would be a weird hypothesis for me to come up with with little evidence and then assert confidently.)
I wasn't claiming I can't lose more reputation.
How did you manage to test it?
Refreshed the page every 5 seconds. If all my comments get downvoted at once that is strong evidence that they weren't actually read, especially if it happens more than once.
There's also a precedent, I dunno if you saw my discussion post about karmassassination.
