You’d be missed, wedrifid. Not that my opinion counts for much (being one tenth the veteran you are), but there you have it.
(I did downvote you occasionally. I also am in favor of more explicit rules regarding what voting patterns are considered to be abusive versus valid expressions of one’s intent. There is no consensus even amongst old-timers, if memory serves e.g. Vladimir Nesov—among others—saw karmassassinations as a valid way of signalling that you’d like someone to leave the forums. There may an illusion of transparency at work—what is an obvious misuse to you may not seem so to others, unless told so explicitly. ETA: I’d like some instructions from the editor on this topic, a.k.a. “I NEED AN ADULT!”)
I don’t endorse indiscriminate downvoting, but occasionally point out that fast systematic downvoting can result from fair judgement of a batch of systematically bad comments.
(Prismattic’s counterexamples, if indeed from the same set, indicate that it’s not the case here.)
