That's very interesting. Thanks for the explanation.

I guess it's not happened to me.

Related question, how come sometimes comments can be downvoted or upvoted and sometimes they can only be upvoted, even though they aren't greyed? I thought it was whether I'd already contributed to the thread, then I thought it was a relative karma thing, but I see later it's neither of those things.



Replies to you and comments that are older than 24 hours can't be downvoted.
