    don't really want to point them out... it'd be nice to have those limits though, specially for those of us who are just recently becoming active, he knocked down a level on the "debator" category

      Shouldn't there be a limit as to how many times one jerkoff can downvote you? I pissed off some ass and he downvoted me like crazy...

      There is, as far as I know. Look here[^], there can be only max 25 events per day of downvoting.

        There is already a daily limit on how many downvotes you can get in a day, but that is in total. ie 25 people (IIRC) can downvote you once each, or 1 person can downvote you 25 times, once that 25 DV limit is reached, no more points are counted. I think you mean that you can only get, say, 5 DV's per day from any individual?

            get used to it. We all get a lot of down votes from time to time. Your rep score will ALWAYS go up and down. Usually, we counter each others down votes with 5's if it is justified.

                                  Consider yourself lucky - I've lost hundreds of points in a given day before the limits kicked in.

                                      Doesnt matter, votes like that are a sign there is an asshole on the lose.

                                          Well, I don't care about the rep points nor do I care if I piss someone off. I will speak the truth regardless of the consequences. You will find people who have high rep points who cry for losing few points here and there. Get over it and those univotes, however I and you might be disagreeing with their action, are exercising their basic right, To VOTE. Period. I can understand the way they use it might be unjustifiable, nonetheless, no one can have it both ways. I'll give you a hint on how to amass points, if you care about it. Just keep doing the right things, write and article, answer questions, get involved and forget about the points. Before you know it, your points will start piling up. Good Luck!

                                          Yusuf May I help you?
