The account score, or karma score is just a rough measurement.

I just got downvote-trolled , where I am currently not much active.

Now, my account there score is -7.

If I were solely judged based on a score manipulated by a downvote troll, that would not be fair.

But it is even worse on Voat.

I shared about three hours ago, which made it to the top of the front page, with over 50 upvotes.

But because Voat treats post scores and comment scores as separate entities, despite of all the upvotes, I still can't interact with any of the comments due to the absurd comment quota (1 comment per 24 hours).

Downvote trolls effectively have moderative powers on Voat. They are able to speer-censor users as they please.

I agree with the principle, if only because e-cock measuring has been daffy since the days of humble post count being the only metric for girth.

But above and beyond the meaninglessness of phrases, I have a special technique that allows me to render this issue irrelevant; a technique which I now share freely with the good people of the forum; no shekels required - I simply pre-emptively judge people ahead of time, so when the time rolls around that I am eventually forced to suffer through an interaction, I can have already made up my mind that I don't like the other bastard.

If I had to describe the feeling, then I would conclude that it feels like having superpowers, only my superpower is to rapidly turn everyone in comprehension into nasty little vile gremlins whose every word and thought is fundamentally offensive in every possible way and whose continued existence is a heavy burden upon my soul.
