May 23, 2020 at 18:19 comment added dismalscience Huh, good to know. Anyway, I’m sorry that’s happening to you. It’s not good for the platform.
May 23, 2020 at 18:15 comment added 1muflon1 @dismalscience I looked it up on SE meta after first week of the pattern and the answer was that the algorithm can only detect some overt abuse not if someone ‘automatically’ gives you downvote every day on 1-2 questions. The meta post recommended flagging it - so I guess there is some way of resolving it that way. Anyway as mentioned above it’s not about points - I wish that whoever is doing that would just approach me so I can apologize for hurting them so much that they resorted to this and then just keep everything professional and not personal
May 23, 2020 at 18:04 comment added dismalscience @1muflon1 I don’t know that even moderators can tell who up or downvoted something, but I think there is an algorithm that identifies serial downvotes of an individual that (presumably based on other votes) reverts them if it looks like it’s personal and not based on content.
May 22, 2020 at 15:51 comment added 1muflon1 @emeryville I also flagged the last answer this happened to for attention of moderators. To be honest I am not that concerned about the lost rep from all those (-1) downvotes but I feel this undermines the credibility of the system. Also if I hurt someone’s feeling so much to resort to this I wish I could apologize to the person because I try to treat everyone with respect but sometimes constructive criticism might be misconstrued as insult but I don’t try to hurt anyone. If someone’s holding grudge for over a week now I must have seriously unintentionally hurt them that makes me sad in itself
May 22, 2020 at 15:43 comment added emeryville @1muflon1 I heard about a similar problem from someone who had an argument with an OP. I assume the user filled out a complaint because SE can identify whether the downvote is specific or not. Anyway, this is very annoying.
May 22, 2020 at 15:31 comment added 1muflon1 @emeryville I was asking because recently no matter what answer I make I receive 1 downvote without any constructive criticism or context or even obvious reason. I don’t know if that’s everyone’s experience with SE - until recently this have never happened to me but at this point It seems more like a downvote upon my person rather than the answer itself.
