There are all sorts of negative emotions it's reasonable to feel right now.

That being said, we can do better than personal attacks.

I don't know whether or not anyone is going back and downvoting all your older posts.

However, having looked at your last several, I am not shocked that they are negative.

They have, for the record. I.e., posts from the morning that were effectively were dead got additional downvotes rapidly after posts in this thread. And I got plenty of HN’s passive aggressive “you’re posting too fast” messages.

Are you a mod? For example, look at this comment[0], which stood at 1 all day long, which is now -3 after last night.

Nope. Not even close.

You should be able to get the modmail from the guidelines or FAQ or someplace.

Downvoting only is possible for the last 24 or 48 hours or so. Also, you are complaining about voting. Boring.

Did I say it was downvotes past 48 hours? Just ones that people had stopped paying attention to because the posts fell off the front page got additional downvotes moments after a new post in this thread.

If you believe someone has done this (downvoting all your old comments on unrelated posts), try emailing the modstaff. It happened to me once and dang quickly fixed it.
