Wrong. Insecurities are normally revealed by reaction. That's how you know they're insecure.

So if a person says something thats good but gets a reaction of 8 or so down votes then its the down voters thats insecure?

If a troll says something bad and gets a reaction 100 up votes who is insecure then?

I think when talking about the current voting system insecuritys should be left out of the discussion as its cleear it doesnt reveal anything about the problem and can be clearly used to say both sides are insecure.

Nope.  I never said that.  The context here is the reaction of the person GETTING THE DOWN VOTES.

If you're crying over receiving down votes, you need a life.  And if that doesn't help, seek professional help if not medication.  Receiving down or up votes on a website never dictates who and what I am.  Let me teach you a couple of facts of life.  We as individual members of the human race tend to think that we are always right, and NOT everyone is always going to agree with you.  And if a person opts to express their opinion on a website via a up/down voting system, you either take it or leave it.  It doesn't mean the system is perfect, but it also doesn't mean that you and anyone else who shares the same point of view should be denied down votes and are entitled up votes.

If you truely believe in what you are saying and you are secure enough to stand by it, ANY kind of voting up and/or down system should be a ZERO issue.  No pun intended.
