It seems to happen most frequently

Does it happen that often? Is it, like in this case, -1? Or more negative tallies?

My policy when I notice this sort of thing is to post more.

That's the spirit!

I post harder. I take downvotes as a sign that there are readers are in need of my gentle tutelage. So many crosses to bear.

Frequency is variable. Every few months, perhaps. I haven't noticed multiple people (or sockpuppets) doing it concurrently -- each downvoted comment just gets -1.
