Forums / Discussion / Serious Debate

I'm going to sound like the world's whiniest bitch right now, and I know the chances of anyone reading this and not joking about it is astronomically small, but I wanted to kind of spill my guts on my feeling. Take it as user feedback.
I made the comment here, which has been recieved quite negatively, and almost every reply I have made has been downvoted to some degree or another. And I feel viscerally sick inside. Every time I see that the count has gone down again, I feel even more like an ignorant shit, missing something so blindingly obvious that the only possible response is "I hate this, goodbye."

I try, and I think I really try, to be a knowledgeable person who is good-hearted and kind to people, and knowing that there is something I'm missing naturally makes me want to fix that gap. And without the constructive criticism I requested and desired, I just feel like an awful human being.
I know I'm a pussy for being a boy and crying, and this won't be taken seriously, but I wanted to share.

Because you made a kindegarden teacher comment about how the comment section should be nicer aimed at no one, when the only negative comment before you was saying shiek looked constipated, a valid and unmean comment, and mixed it with a cringey tumblr-tier body-positivity comment, again, brought on by nothing, but the assumption people would dislike this picture because one Zelda is muscular and another is thicc (actually thicc this time, not "she's got wide hips" thicc), not noticing that those are seen as better here.

Don't take downvotes so seriously, it's just people disagreeing with you or not liking your comment, they are allowed to do that and not explain themselves. You shouldn't worry about it.

It's the kind of thing a psychopath would type. I personally love it. Not for the same reason you might, but still.

More or less what Ryumaru said, but I'd add that downvotes are like a dog pile.

If something gets enough downvotes to be buried, it tempts anyone who sees the buried post to downvote it regardless of it's contents. Watching a number get bigger regardless if it's positive or negative is fun.
