Downvotes on Article Comments

[Super_Boom]

Heh, you think it's rough here, try out some of my sub-Reddits.

Upvote/Downvote etiquette is that you upvote anything that's well-written or stated, but I don't really follow that. Typically I'll only upvote comments I agree with, regardless of how well-written a post I may disagree with is. I only downvote comments that are legitimately breaking the rules, flaming or trolling, etc. 

Personally, I really dislike the system, since it's so easily abused. I usually favor giving that power to admins or moderators rather than to a mob of downvoters.
