Just to clarify, I'm more interested as to the "why's" of a thumbs down vs. if some person doesn't like another person and so forth.
I happen to think that if you are going to give a thumbs down, it would be helpful to voice what it was that didn't make sense in the post. However, I understand that sometimes one may not have time or just can't put in the effort and that's fine too I guess.
Ofcourse, if it's a personal issue and they are giving the post because they don't happen to see more like the person posting, then that is their problem and I can think of a few things they can do with that thumb...lol...
The karmic concept of what goes around comes around may apply here. I believe these things have a way of catching up on people if they are so inclined to be negative in that way.
Anyway, some really great viewpoints and comments overall. It's all very good. I thank each and everyone who has taken the time to contribute their .02 cents.
