As a data point for those questioning my motives: on a purely emotional level, it is frustrating and depressing to see my "I participated in the survey!" get down-voted to -1 within minutes of posting, especially when the ONLY OTHER negative-karma post in that thread is someone being unambiguously antisocial.
I'm tired of being reminded that no matter WHERE I go, there will be people who disapprove of my very existence.
I was wondering whether admins might have handled the matter by privately admonishing or limiting the mass down-voter(s), but apparently not.
Well, there's another possibility - by complaining, I may have invited more people to start participating in arbitrary downvoting.
It sucks, I know. Ever had an enemy irl in your workplace for example? Welcome to the world :)
