oh man I just got one downvote on a whole bunch of different comments in quick succession, apparently I lost right around 67 karma to this, from 1209 to 1143! how interesting, I wonder if someone’s trying to tell me something… so hard to infer intent from number changes
Crazy idea: you’re not allowed to downvote without either writing an explanation of why, or pressing agree on someone else’s explanation of why they downvoted. Or some variation of that.
Not sure why you’re linking to that comment here, but: the reason that link was broken for niplav is because your shortform-container post is marked as a draft, which makes it (and your shortform comments) inaccessible to non-admins. You can fix it by editing the shortform container post and clicking Publish, which will make it accessible again.
(The reason I linked to the comment is that I too have noticed that downvotes without explanation don’t give much information, and my probably bad suggestion about that seemed relevant.)
Thanks for clarifying.… but, I can’t publish it. I’ve put text in the title and in the body, and clicked the publish button. It has some effect, namely making the “GET FEEDBACK” button disappear. When I check links to shortform comments, they’re still not visible to outsiders. When I reload the container post, the title text is gone and the body text is gone but restorable, even though I’ve also clicked SAVE DRAFT. I’m refering to the post on my profile that looks like: 1[Draft]Bíos brakhús

We’re looking into it.

Now you know the struggle of every reinforcement learner.
