      I agree. Make people think twice about downvoting. It might help keep it from being used as an “I disagree” button.

      About 10 years ago I guess I offended some deranged lunatic on reddit who proceeded to stalk my account and down vote every comment I made and would leave weird, vaguely threatening replies to my comments. I had no choice but to delete that account. Luckily there was nothing that could have publicly identified me. I don’t think people need to see who is down voting comments.

      I ALSO don’t like that I tried to delete this account but it interpreted that as a “request” and it needs to be “reviewed”. Fuck that.

      We have anonymous voting in politics. People tend to think it is a good policy. Why do you think it is different online?

        If you keep your account anonymous and don’t dox yourself, there’s not much to worry about. I’m not scared of a few internet losers trying to dig up info on somebody insignificant and unimportant like me.
