Lol. Who downvotes a daily discussion thread?

I downvote when someone says they don't put butter on toast.

I exist.. we exist.

Flashback to a concert at Festival Hall when Wayne started the show by rolling out on top on the crowd in one of those inflatable mouse ball things, then proceeded to sing the first 3 or 4 songs whilst being rolled around on-top of the crowd by the crowd ...

I butter my toast but not if it's peanut butter. Then it's peanut butter only.

There's one or more serial downvoters here, lurking. They hide away, and express their displeasure at our community the only way they know how.

Or it was a fat-finger that went off-course lol

Could be a mistake or could be someone gets their kicks from it. But eh, DT could be downvoted to minus a million but still I’d visit here to enjoy the company.

I've accidentally downvoted a few people here just by fat fingering on mobile

It happens consistently with the daily thread itself as I usually see the percentage always being less than 100%

I was a bit confused about how you knew, my page just shows a cumulative total. Then I looked at it in the Jerboa app and it shows there, so I guess it just depends on the interface.

I have downvoted random things due to poor scrolling techniques, and it wouldn't surprise me if Miss Meow has managed to cast a few votes with a stray tail swipe or face rub too.

Oh that interesting. I’m not using an app right now just on web browser. I thought that was something everyone could see.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've just moved to my phone and it shows here, it's just the tablet showing the combined total for some reason. Odd.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

We discovered something together.

I can see the percentage through wefwef.

Says 29 upvotes and lists a 97% with a smiley face.

I assume that’s the percentage of people who upvoted.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Probably the same person who didn't appreciate my morning coffee and poo announcement yesterday. Maybe they do neither. Lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m mean that’s quality shitposting, who doesn’t like that?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks. I take bowel health very seriously.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Same people who downvoted the Reddit one?

You never noted it fluctuates between. -5 and +5 all day long?
