So from a downvote what do you infer, in words?

I look at it as "I disagree with this" your position of "harsh" speaks more I think to how you view yourself than it does to anything else.

I dont understand what you are saying, but I will go back on topic and I say I would love it if they change the voting system

What I am saying is this: there is a difference in implication and inference.  The impllication of a downvote is that someone doesn't agree with/like what you said.  The inference of the downvote on the part of the poster is what creates a greater negative than that.

What I infer from your posts is that you feel like people are harsh when they disagree with you and that it hurts your feelings.  That is how you receive the message not necessarily the message being sent.  If you want people to respond with why they disagree instead, I have a feeling you would actually see more harsh things than just a thumbs down on your opinion.
