Did anyone else have the experience that two downvotes on Reddit hurt more than the good feeling from getting100 upvotes? Or was that just me?

The thing that bothered me was getting downvoted when it made absolutely no sense. When I made some book recommendations, for example.

And I'm pretty sure that in at least some cases, one or more people were following me around to downvote everything I wrote. That kind of petty malice is hard to understand.

Agreed! There’s just no need for it. I’m glad this place is different in that regard.

In some subreddits, it seemed like every comment was automatically downvoted once or twice.
