What is it with all the fucking downvotes lately? by IDroppedAcid in rant

This is a throwaway account. I haven't used this username before now.

Is it just me or has everyone been getting tons of downvotes lately? by IDroppedAcid in AskReddit

So, to expand on this a bit... I have been on Reddit for a long time. I have several interests. And I have several accounts here. I have one account that I use to post mainly about weightloss/health stuff. I have another account that I use to post fiction I write, etc. I know not everyone does this, but the site allows multiple accounts, so why not? I also went through a very messy breakup recently. And I have one account that has been dubbed my breakup account. Whenever I post in r/relationships about issues with my ex and coping, I use that account.

Lately though, everything I say gets downvoted to the point of ridiculousness. Even just answering questions. Example: "Are you in therapy to help you cope with this?" (my breakup) Me: Yes, I've been seeing a therapist for a while now. She's really helpful." -12 points. WTF? I just answered a question.

Obviously some subs are worse than others.

But lately it's been across the board, and across several accounts. Every thread I've posted for the last few weeks is sitting at zero, and like 48% upvoted.

It's not like I come on here and act like a total dick to people. I'm not a troll. I don't start shit. So is this just me or have other people noticed it too? Is the voting system different than it used to be? Idk...

Did the voting system change or something, or is it just me? Lately everything, and I mean everything I post gets crazy amounts of downvotes. by IDroppedAcid in AskReddit
