I’m confused on why people would downvote threads that account for most of the content in this community

I have my stats disabled usually cause they kind of manipulate my emotions and views and what is correct or not.

Better to focus on the factual content of the comment or post than on the up or down points.

Reddit was really bad about this because you constantly had a number to your name and it was addicting to score them points and defeated the point of normal discussion.
