Serial downvoters still exist on CodeProject?
-
I've just updated one of my new articles this morning and got a 1/5 without leaving any comment or interesting suggestion. The vote was not removed because the article is relatively new and has not got enough upvotes. I also got another 1/5 on another article but this one was removed because the article has enough upvotes. Do serial downvoters still exist on CodeProject?

Well, I can't speak for any of the others, but... Seriously, I see no reason to vote an article a 1 when I can report it as "Extremely poor quality" or something instead. Not meaning yours, of course. Not sure I saw it. In so many cases, I feel I'm not qualified to judge an article, so I don't.

Definitively yes.

No problem, vote deletion can happen later too. If enough upvotes come, then it will disappear. The "age" of the vote has nothing to say in that balance

I had the same thing happen to me just now, and it isn't the first time.

This. This is helpful, where a one star is not, especially if you point out weak areas that could use improvement.

and it won't be the last one. And not only with articles. Everyone here gets it from time to time even in the forums.

It's a shame when you put so much time and effort on an article and someone who even didn't read it come and vote 1/5 without leaving any reason or any comment.

Yeah, it's disappointing, but some people just want to be jerks.

Sorry to hear about that, I also experienced this with some of my articles and I think something should be done about this. Maybe its a small consolation to you that I upvoted your article with 5 points.

I'm looking into this. So far, it doesn't seem to a case of serial downvoting, but if you start to see more votes of 1, please let me know. Nevertheless, I will investigate further.

What you learned is not correct and has been discussed many times: No votes (at least dwon votes) without comments. On the other hand, speaking of a series after two downvotes is also quite questionable ;)

Nah, you're arab and people don't like you ;) Seriously this - "but some people just want to be jerks" I've seen this on other articles where unknown yahoos vote 1, claim derivative work, you could have just used , disparage, and otherwise piss on your parade. Traditionally, this would get them into a fist fight where they might reconsider their ways, but it's the internet. Just to spite the prick, I'm going to go look at your articles - keep paddling.

Some want you to cater to the lowest denominator. If they don't understand your article, they assume it's your problem.

I was about to mention you, since you've been so helpful to me in the past. I was looking, and one of my articles was downvoted as well - I'm fine with it, and it doesn't look like they've done it to everything like they typically do so I didn't say anything. I wasn't paying attention to other folks articles in that respect though.

To be fair, if people don't understand my articles, I do consider it my problem, but I'd prefer an explanation of the downvote.
