Hacker News Reader

We don't know why people vote the way they do, but in this case the comment breaks the guidelines, as does yours:

Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.

That is your opinion. If all you understood from my post was that I am commenting about voting, then you missed the point.

I understood your point very well but that’s also not the relevant point. We never know why people downvote, which is why it’s against the guidelines to make an issue of it in arguments. Our job is to keep discussions within the guidelines, regardless of the position being advocated.
