Personally wouldn't want the downvote removed, it's a good indicator for things like spam posts etc. Better to have those down voted than not to imo.

Yeah, i would also like it to remain there, but i feels like from my experience, i've seen it used very arbitrary/maliciously on innocent post than on spam post. And people just can't refrain from downvoting language they don't understand.

True. But I'd also like to see a reduction of seemingly general purpose down voting. There seem to be users who do nothing but down vote everything in sight.

The down ote button is a disagree button. You can complain all you want, but that's what it is and will always be.

That wasn't my point.
