| Sep 16, 2010 at 20:30 | comment | added | Shog9 | @Shady: this has been discussed to death, but... There are a number of good reasons and even more not-so-great but unavoidably-practical reasons not to comment. Off the top of my head: redundant comment, argumentative author, blatant trolling, lack of time, lack of space, fear of reprisal, poor communication skills. I'm not against commenting, mind you - a look at any of my profiles should demonstrate that. But I don't feel it should be linked to voting, as they have vastly different purposes and constraints. | |

| Sep 15, 2010 at 15:07 | comment | added | Shog9 | @Shady: If you're reserving down-votes for stuff that actually offends you, then you're doing the site a disservice: it's much faster to view a post's score than it is to read through the comments looking for dissenting views. Especially if the comments are left by users who write poorly and require a lot of back-and-forth to get their point across. | |
| Sep 15, 2010 at 14:59 | comment | added | Shady M. Najib | @SamB What for? I thought people are here on Stack-Exchange sites to help one another not just getting opinionated about one another :D I'd only flag or down vote if I found something offensive.. If I found something wrong I'd either edit it or comment about what went worng | |
| Sep 14, 2010 at 21:04 | comment | added | SamB | Huh. As for me, I often reach for the "downvote comment" button. | |
| Sep 12, 2010 at 8:08 | comment | added | Shady M. Najib | Do you think it would be worth adding either here or to SO as a feature request/ meta-question? | |

| Sep 11, 2010 at 20:07 | comment | added | snmcdonald | +1: Although I disagree with you on forcing comments for downvoting, I think this is a good answer. | |
