Ok, this has been bothering me for a while. I hate it when I accidently click downvote/upvote and the post gets less/more likes. This is really annoying, and doesn't make that much sense seeing you can unfavorite.

We complained about this before, we got the "Are you sure?" prompt and a five second wait between votes. Don't make it worst please.

So it isn't possible to fix them due to a problem with coding?
Because if you complained about them before I would expect it to change unless it was impossible because that honestly just sounds like an inconvenient workaround.
This has been asked multiple times before. It's not changing because of the possibility of trolling with karma abuse. People (read: idiots) will go through someones entire history and downvote everything because they made them mad. It's in place to avoid changing +karma to negakarma and will likely not be changed.
The 5 seconds and the prompt are to help take some load off of the system because people will karmabomb entries and kill the server, and the prompt adds another safety layer to the negakama abuse. Nothing to do with changing votes.
This gets brought up like once every other month, by the way. As with anything it's always a good idea to search if it's already been brought up.
