I opted in to seeing downvotes, and I think my curiosity (both about personal interactions on the site and about the general topic of mechanism design) will compel me to continue. I’m not worried about them—as I say, they were low-value comments, though not much different from others that get upvoted more (and IMO shouldn’t be). Mostly it shows that low-number-of-voters is mostly noise, and that’s fine.
My main point was wondering how I can monitor my own voting behavior? (ok, and a little complaining that variable-point voting is confusing.) I think I upvote pretty liberally and downvote very rarely, but I really wonder if that’s true, and I wonder things like how many votes I give (on multiple comments) on the same post.
I do agree that being able to see metrics on your own voting is pretty reasonable, although not something I expect to make it to the top of our priority queue for awhile.
