RE: Thoughts on Autovoting
This is a responsible way to vote, assuming you actually read the article. Voting on something I asked not to be voted on is either a sign of disrespect or an indication that despite your manual intervention you were behaving with the intellect of a bot.
Either way this post shows how the existing rules can be bent and may need to be tweaked to discourage this behavior.
I definitely did not mean any disrespect; your request was to not upvote the post so you could judge the autobot's. i figured down voting is not going to be the action of a bot and made my manual vote known in that method; if you had mentioned to not vote on the post at all then i would have respected your wishes and abstained and just left a comment instead.
Apologies if i have screwed up your calculation; it was not my intent
I didn't take it as disrespect. I should have used general terms rather than referring to you personally. A downvote in this case is the proper "upvote".
This is getting a bit confusing now. Was downboting not wanted? Is that the case?
