Or if no-one else thought that botvoting of people was a good idea. Or did Eugine manually perform all those downvotes himself? Where were his standards when he downvoted the good and neutral as well as the bad?
Or did Eugine manually perform all those downvotes himself?
I had presumed so. When I was active I read every comment and a vote is a single click so ‘botting’ would change little. Eugine was fairly active so is more likely than not to have applied the votes manually. Not that it particularly matters.

I have no idea, Eugine was an assclown. But even assuming every voting decision he ever made was based on dickishness I can still conclude that it is impossible to have been ‘overwhelmingly’ the biggest downvoter of some users based on some suitable definition of ‘whelm’, comparison with the proportion of quality posts and the realisation that “100%” is the upper bound on how many of another user’s comments a single account could have possibly made.
Eugine, his actions and his psychological motives are actually irrelevant for the purpose of the reasoning in the grandparent.
