How DOES downvoting work? All I see are upward triangles, if that has anything to do with it at all. How much more hidden functionality is there for “privileged members”? And how do you join the club?
Downvotes require a karma threshold (of 500 IIRC).
BTW, whatever you do don't overuse the 'flag' feature on stories as it seems when this is revoked it is permanent! I lost mine when trying to encourage news other than the passing of Steve Jobs.
