On occasion I have the impression that all my recent comments have been downvoted by 1 in a short span of time.

Not that HN karma matters, but it's very well possible that that is already going on.

Yep. There are a lot of HNers who abuse the voting system and leave no traces (no arguments, no reasons). It's quite a childish behavior.

The only civic discussion forum I know of is the extropy chat email list.

For the topics it covers, the discussion at SlateStarCodex.com and its matching reddit are of extremely high quality, both in terms of the thought that goes into comments, as well as the civility of participants.

HN users have to accrue a certain amount of karma and age before they can downvote comments. Thankfully.
