maybe one of the flaw of HN is you only have the UpVote Button for most of the users..

There is no downvote button for stories, and the bar is fairly low for the downvote button on user comments, IIRC.

Is clicking the [-] button (which hides the comment) the same thing as down voting?

That's "Collapse Thread" / "Collapse Tree" and it's a view-only thing to make it easier to browser the comments.

Thanks... So then, at what point does down voting become enabled?

I believe it becomes available once you have 500 karma. There may also be an account age requirement. The idea, IIRC, is to only give the power to people who are invested in the community.

You can flag any post, and downvote privileges take 500 (501?) karma.

1. You can't flag a comment that is in direct reply to you.

2. You need to go to the permalink / direct link to the comment to see the flag link.
