100 CCP is yet again a requirement to downvote and changes I pushed yesterday are now reverted. I spent about 6 hours yesterday reading your comments on my announcement and I think it's pretty clear that majority of you had concerns with removing restrictions. Back to the drawing board I guess. Please accept my apologies for causing the mess.

It encourages participation in discussion. I think that's why most people like it.
It also makes you earn the ability/responsibility of downvoating.

Id be in favor of heavier restrictions. Such as requiring a reply in order to downvoat or maybe a daily ratio of comments to downvoats. But i think im in the minority in that regard.

We both are then.... If you're going to downvoat, you should be required to offer an alternative position/explanation. I'm with you.

The only problem i see with that is spam. I have no need to reply to the manhood 101 folks but oh boy does downvoating them feel good.

Hit the report spam button. It's the mods job to deal with it.
