I downvoted your post because it contained virtually no meaningful discussion or ideas and it didn't explain or expound upon what it did contain. Frankly, I'd rather not have that kind of thing even appear in Discussion, because it clutters the space when looking for actual content.
Edit: there was apparently more content there earlier that was deleted. I downvoted based on the short version with the deleted content, not on the version with more information.
AndyWood lost all the karma he accumulated over 5 years, with three lines posted to Discussion. There was little discussion, lots of reactionary criticism.
Does this seem in balance to you, Dentin?
It wasn't 3 lines. The actual discussion post is at -39 right now. If Andy had just realized that he was in a hole and stopped digging, he could have walked away with most of his karma intact. Instead, he made comment after comment trying to defend his post, and the combined downvotes on all those comments is what wiped out 5 years of karma.
Andy needs to talk to Professor Quirrell and ask for a lesson on how to lose.
He lost all the karma he bothered to accumulate over five years. Karma is easy to come by if you want it.
