>so many who just down-vote challenging questions but lack the patience and courage to form an argument.

Fear of the unknown is an impetus for herd mentality.

Hopefully your comment ceases to be gray…

Just been thinking about your remark about "gray". Like am I really so dull? Wow! I just realised that people who use some regular browsers see down-voted comments as kinda faded out. That's really sinister but also quite funny and in character with the dystopian creed.

How about adding random characters and line noise to unpopular comments, or replacing odd words to make them seem more deranged and subtract credibility?
