It was mistakenly assumed that most people’s down vote count would not be approaching their karma, particularly for high karma users. I’ll do some more research and discuss it with Eliezer.
Quick fix deployed. I did some analysis of user’s down vote count and karma. This change allows everyone to down vote that doesn’t have a massively skewed down vote to karma ratio (Like 21 to 2 or 548 to 137). Obviously this still leaves thomblake roughly 500 short.

Initial quick fix: downvote limit = 4x karma.

Out of curiosity, why 4?
