I'm not sure what the exact rule is right now, but would it help to simply increase the threshold at which people are allowed to downvote comments?


would it help to simply increase the threshold

Priviledge thresholds have been periodically increased by the management. However, the process (so far) has been manual. Threshold-increase might instead simply be automated with code that also calculates karma-inflation.


Good idea. I just doubled the karma threshold for downvoting (to 100).
