What on Earth? Why is it not possible to downvote posts anymore? I've tried to negatively rate a post full of bs and I've accidentally upvoted it, and now I can't even undo it!!

Has this forum become like YouTube? Why has the possibility of downvoting clearly abusive and/or troll posts been taken away from us?

Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering. Remember that once you start down the dark path, forever will dominate your destiny.

Probably because almost all posts from the last couple of years are perma-downrep’d. This one would be for example :) Cheers

This post definitely would have been downvoted. Can't be so sensitive around here. Plus, downvoting someone's opinion or comment is rather childish and akin to trying to be the opinion police.

That was the funniest thing I've read the whole day. I literally laughed out loud.

Suffering leads to pain. Pain leads to gain.

You wish. I'm sorry, but I forgot about you.
I'd appreciate it if you'd extend me the same courtesy.

Fact is, it was not an 'opinion', nor a 'comment'. When you don't know how something went down, please do not judge.

no downvotes, no rep. thats a great thing. its the best thing gog has done since 2014. and all the pathetic, moronic users with no life, which downvoted posts here with their alt account armies, are probably going insane and are on the verge of commiting suicide

Are they the reason why it was removed? Why can't people just bloody use tools in the proper way? lol
I didn't really care about the rep but I liked the fact that a post could be reported after downvoting it, if it violated the community rules.

Well, that's good. Seems you wanna downvote others too then. lol They removed it for that very reason. Best thing GOG has done in a decade. The moderators on these forums are the same folks who answer your emails and support requests. They don't have the time to run around mediating because of hurt feelings or thin skin. That's another reason they removed it.

i'm pretty sure that was the reason
Now you have to actually engage people if you want them to know how much you hate them.

Ah yes, the presumption of knowledge.

All is in the mind's eye, My judgemental friend.
