I didn't downvote you, but your comment doesn't add anything to the public conversation, it just clutters it. Just click the upvote button next time.

I didn't downvote you, but probably because it didn't contribute anything to the discussion.

praneshp | karma 2554 | avg karma 2.27 · | 2017-07-25 18:43:24+00:00

I downvoted you because your comment did not contribute to the conversation.

I didn't downvote, but I found that your comment didn't add anything to the discussion. You said stuff about yourself, gave no new information, and invited polarizing comments.

I downvoted both of the comments in which you mentioned your downvotes. Talking about downvotes adds absolutely nothing to the conversation.

Couldn't you just post your own thoughts instead of downvoting my comment then? Or if you find it irrelevant just ignore it? What does downvoting add? Personally I don't care if you want to downvote, but your justification doesn't make any sense.

I didn't downvote you but I was replying to the (now removed) comment.

I did not downvote you. I only do that when I believe a comment detracts from the discussion, which yours did not.

chollida1 | karma 27374 | avg karma 8.97 · | 2011-01-27 23:46:11+00:00

I didn't down vote you but I'd imagine the down voting wasn't for disagreement with you, but rather, because your statement doesn't seem to add much value to the conversation.

fxtentacle | karma 18712 | avg karma 5.34 · | 2022-04-12 08:15:58

I didn't downvote you, but I did consider it because your answer doesn't add anything to the discussion.

loupgarou21 | karma 53 | avg karma 0.73 · | 2013-07-31 15:28:23+00:00

I'm guessing you were downvoted because you aren't really contributing to the conversation, but are instead actively trolling with that post.

tomp | karma 21535 | avg karma 2.82 · | 2013-04-15 11:57:01+00:00

I didn't downvote you because I didn't agree with you (even though I don't), but because your comment is underspecified, un-argumented, and thus without any value.

bobbles | karma 2976 | avg karma 3.43 · | 2011-07-21 06:57:27+00:00

I'm sure people are downvoting you purely because it has nothing to do with the discussion.

ionised | karma 2447 | avg karma 0.86 · | 2018-01-04 11:47:09+00:00

I didn't downvote, but your comment has absolutely nothing to do with the subject of the thread.

aeontech | karma 3152 | avg karma 3.95 · | 2011-04-12 00:57:54

I didn't downvote, but I understand why people did. Both the parent comment and your reply add more or less nothing to the discussion. The problem isn't your comment, the problem is the parent comment, but if you feed the trolls, well, you know what happens :)

nitrogen | karma 22058 | avg karma 2.02 · | 2012-03-16 05:08:19+00:00

I didn't downvote you, but my guess is that your (pre-edit) comment adds little to the conversation, and could nearly as easily have been expressed by upvoting the parent (which, IMO, also fails to add much to the discussion).

drx | karma 2098 | avg karma 7.23 · | 2011-04-23 17:13:26

You are being downvoted because your comment adds nothing to the conversation.

tokai | karma 8030 | avg karma 3.41 · | 2023-09-12 05:20:17

Just downvote if you don't have anything to add, instead of a shallow and unconstructive comment.

brighteyes | karma 1501 | avg karma 4.38 · | 2015-07-30 23:31:19

I didn't downvote you.

I agree that downvotes are not conducive to a discussion.

I downvoted, not because of what he said or how he said it, but because there's basically no chance that the comment will lead to an enlightening conversation.
