Downvotes remind me of an occurrence when I was a young whippersnapper doing IT support at a University Dept. a quarter of a century ago.

One of the teachers had noticed a problem on one of the computers in a classroom (PPC Macs).  Instead of letting me know, they decided that a post-it note on the classroom door would suffice.  It read: "Nominal Animal, one of the computers has a problem.  Please fix."

To reiterate, downvotes are NOT USEFUL, unless they intend to gauge popularity and nothing but popularity.  And I for one am not interested in popularity contests.
