I'm OK with downvoting but it doesn't seem to be at all rare for good posts get effectively removed just because enough people disagree. I agree that some posts are worth hiding, but lots of at least decent posts go along as well. And it's not just that posts get hidden, it's also that replying becomes impossible.
It's possible that in the big picture, the voting system keeps the comment sections clean. Personally though, it doesn't improve my posts at all. It just makes me think what I should say to not get downvoted because people might disagree and ultimately, it makes me avoid posting comments altogether. I still do it occassionally but the voting system essentially makes it impossible to discuss anything in comments (which, depending on how you look at it, might be either a good or a bad thing).
