I doubt it's personal. Most of us upvote useful signal (like http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3420657, which has not been grayed out by a negative score) and downvote useless noise (like any yelling about voting) regardless of who wrote it.
The attacks are from downvoting, not upvoting. Only a small fraction of HN users can downvote. With so much downvoting, it has to be the MODs who are doing it. It's so consistent that it's a personal attack on me.
