I recommend reacting to actual upvotes and downvotes rather than hypothetical karma.

Instead of generalizing to other people from your reactions, just say what you liked/didn't like about aspects of a post.

If you're interested in writing about problems with commonly given advice, I'm interested in reading it.

In defense of Username's feedback, helltank did explicitly solicit feedback:

if I violated some unspoken rule of etiquette, or if you think this post is obvious and shitty, feel free to vote me down. But do leave a comment explaining why you did, so I can add it to my list of learnt things.

IMO, Username's feedback was valid.
