I clicked by mistake the downvote button instead of the upvote button. I'm really sorry because it was the first vote.
I think this site should implement an unbutton function for these unfortunate cases.
I mean: there is an unclick function for the star button. Why not for the other two?

How about a unclick function for the vote buttons?

I'm not certain what's going on higher up, but if James does decide to dedicate his time to adding any feature to the Karma System, I vouch for this first.
However, give a 30-60 second limit on when you can change your vote.
And I think we have just repeated 5 years worth of brainstorming.

You pretty much said what we were all thinking.
I agree, though. We need some sort of remove upvote thing
Probably a comment editor too

Yeah we've discussed this quite a lot. Something about karma bombing and whoring. But the time limit is a good idea, don't see any wrong with it.
I agree a hundred percent. I have random shakes sometimes, and that's made me accidentally downvote a few things.
Yeah, this has been a known problem for a while. I literally have no idea why nothing has been done.

I approve of this idea (like everyone else) as I accidentaly downvoted a image I liked once.
this sounds like a good idea, this would allow me to undo any accidental down-votes i might make.
You used to be able to undo your votes and switch them years ago, but people would go through their history and switch all their votes to fuck with people's karma.
It was used as a way to karma bomb, so we decided to get rid of the switching.

How do you even go through your vote history? Is that even possible anymore?
And, anyway, if you only kept the option open for, like, 30 minutes after the vote, that wouldn't be a problem. Maybe, if you really, really need to change something, you could ask a mod, but stuff from a year ago could be locked by default.

Yeah, we really need an unclick function… (or at least a UI specifically made for mobile phones)

I clicked the downvote button instead of the upvote button on your post.
