Lol. Who downvotes a daily discussion thread?

[–] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I downvote when someone says they don't put butter on toast.

I exist.. we exist.

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Flashback to a concert at Festival Hall when Wayne started the show by rolling out on top on the crowd in one of those inflatable mouse ball things, then proceeded to sing the first 3 or 4 songs whilst being rolled around on-top of the crowd by the crowd ...

I butter my toast but not if it's peanut butter. Then it's peanut butter only.

Could be a mistake or could be someone gets their kicks from it. But eh, DT could be downvoted to minus a million but still I’d visit here to enjoy the company.

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

It happens consistently with the daily thread itself as I usually see the percentage always being less than 100%

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

I've accidentally downvoted a few people here just by fat fingering on mobile

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There's one or more serial downvoters here, lurking. They hide away, and express their displeasure at our community the only way they know how.

Or it was a fat-finger that went off-course lol

[–] useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Fat fingwrs gangf!

[–] just_kitten@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I have accidentally dowmvored my own comments before! Fat fingets unite indeef

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

I have big ole Bratwurst digits lol

I was a bit confused about how you knew, my page just shows a cumulative total. Then I looked at it in the Jerboa app and it shows there, so I guess it just depends on the interface.

I have downvoted random things due to poor scrolling techniques, and it wouldn't surprise me if Miss Meow has managed to cast a few votes with a stray tail swipe or face rub too.

[–] useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh that interesting. I’m not using an app right now just on web browser. I thought that was something everyone could see.

[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've just moved to my phone and it shows here, it's just the tablet showing the combined total for some reason. Odd.

[–] useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

We discovered something together.

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

I can see the percentage through wefwef.

Says 29 upvotes and lists a 97% with a smiley face.

I assume that’s the percentage of people who upvoted.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Probably the same person who didn't appreciate my morning coffee and poo announcement yesterday. Maybe they do neither. Lol

[–] useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’m mean that’s quality shitposting, who doesn’t like that?

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

Thanks. I take bowel health very seriously.

[–] halibutherring@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

Same people who downvoted the Reddit one?

You never noted it fluctuates between. -5 and +5 all day long?
