That's a quick good suggestion. 5! But I would request you to Chris that as they have made "Reason for my vote of 1" mandatory in article for the people who loves downvoting. He should include it in Q&A as well.

In the long term, the only solution that will completely eliminate the problem is to eliminate downvoting. If only upvoting was allowed, the immature members who like to downvote would go elsewhere for their kicks. We don't want them here. You will find in this forum many, many members who complain about being downvoted. Downvoting is a constant source of bad feelings, anger, and desire to "get even". There's no good reason to have downvoting, either. A positive upvote (or no vote) tells you all you need to know.

Some body has downvoted all my answers HERE[^]. Can CP help towards the reputation misuse or need to live with that only ?

Yes Hiren, 4 days(not exactly) some body downvoted my 10 answers (In those some answers had already 5's also).I got 10 (-4)'s. At That time am not happy :( :(. If He(who downvoted) mention reason for downvote, then we will learn something from that. :(( :((

I actual disagree with that. I have downvoted answers such as "make the textbox public in order to share it between two forms" - with appropriate comments. I feel that the downvote emphasises to the OP that this is a spectacularly stupid idea, and hopeful discourages the "professional" who made the suggestion from doing it again. Just upvotes, or no votes, does not do that, unless you are quite abusive to the "professional" - which is unfair too.
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

Unfortunately, for every reasonable use of a downvote - such as the one you described - there are many, many, many more downvotes by immature people people who leave no feedback and only want to cause mischief. CP cannot screen out these idiots, so the best solution is to take their toys away. Whatever positive benefit that downvoting provides is not worth driving away novice members who don't understand that it's not the site that is speaking, but only a few malicious members.

You will have to choice among below two when these things happens. 1) Either leave all the matter of downvote and go away by understanding long term benefit of it, In other word don't discuss it anywhere otherwise downvoter will love to annoy you. 2)Share it over here and some humble people who really believe in repetition point emphasize really will upvote you, That way you will annoy the downvoter. I choose second option and I got all my answer upvoted by Manfred. Thank you very much manfred reach me any kinda help you need from my side in future.

I'm sorry, but that is like saying: "We can't screen out people who stab you with a kitchen knife; the best solution is to only allow plastic cooking equipment".

I realize that downvoting posts which one doesn't like yields a certain perverse pleasure, as if one was administering the lash of justice to an ignoramus. But don't you think we - the CP community - can do better? Don't you think the OP deserves better than to be told "Ignore it"? I do, and I would like to see the problem eliminated. Especially - as in this case - where downvoting causes so many problems, and has no positive effect (except the one I mentioned in the first sentence). But I would like to hear from you, how your downvotes have corrected a wayward programmer leaning toward bad logic and nasty syntax. Which of your downvotes has steered a potential miscreant away from the path of goto's? How many reformed programmers have emailed to thank you for the corrective downvote which turned their lives around? I'm sure you won't bother to look, because we both know there have been none. Such is the legacy of downvoting - bitterness, anger, resentment, and confusion. Nothing positive, only negative. Downvoting doesn't belong in this community.

It's not a case of not bother: with 5336 messages to my name, and 818 Q&A answers, and 493 comments I don't have the time! I would have to examine each one, and there is no way I can justify that kind of activity just to prove a point!

Very interesting, Hans. I would tweak your idea a bit. Leave the current voting system in place but remove the negative votes, say 1-vote = 0. This way one can show disagreement with some grossly wrong answer while keeping univoters in check. All 1-vote means is, I disagree with you. I am sure this will bring some harmony a) it will keep the tool for univoters b) the damage inflicted by univoters is elliminated c) gives members a voice for disagreement with particular view/opinion thus this will bring about your idea without completely getting rid of downvoting.
Yusuf May I help you?

Thank you for replying in a positive manner. Unfortunately, I cannot agree with your suggestion. All it would do is shift the dreaded 1 vote to a dreaded 2 vote. To completely eradicate this problem and all its consequences, we need to eliminate everything except a single up-vote.
Best wishes, Hans
