What? If I think anti-feedback rules are harmful (and I do), I am downvoting this post no matter what (and I did). The post doesn't need anti-feedback protection to allow us to try out the idea, only the comments do.
Unfortunately, just the presence of the rule or even implication that this is a rule is sufficient to counteract a lot of such feedback. It's not enough for some people to ignore the anti-feedback convention and vote anyway, it might be necessary to take the anti-feedback convention down explicitly as well, to indicate clearly that it doesn't apply to the post.
(Notice how the post managed to stay at exactly 0 Karma this whole time, with only temporary fluctuations.)
Edit: It seems that I was wrong, after several hours the post started going into the negative, and is currently at -10, despite no official change of rules; dissenting feedback was strong enough. This thread might have played a role.
Right, I agree with that and I suppose I should have stated more explicitly that I don't want anti-feedback on the post to be the rule, not just that I intend to act as though there is no such rule.
