If upvotes are "i like/i agree", why shouldn't a downvote be " i don't like/i disagree"? Why are people making something else out of it?

And this is exactly why downvoters shouldn't be blocked, even if it's only for a while: now they can elaborate why they downvote.

Yes, that's true. But what's the point of asking something to a community if you're not willing to handle criticism?

In this case, yes. Because next time i downvote something, i'm not allowed to explain why. How respectful i may be, you take away my freedom to share my opinion. On a open platform, of all... This is a place of discussions, criticism often is a part of that. Can't handle that? This place might not be for you.

Downvoters can disagree on something, hence the downvote. I don't mind seeing your post, because it opens a new discussion for a possible new feature. Now we can talk about whenever it is a good thing or not. And i simply think it is not.

Hello, i downvoted this because i strongly disagree, but that doesn't mean i'm not open to discuss this (are discussions not why platforms like this exist in the first place?). A downvote doesn't mean i don't care, like you suggest.
People should be allowed to agree AND disagree, and still be allowed to explain why they downvote.

I've noticed your posts a couple of times now. Just pay for your fucking games, especially from the companies that still have a heart for gaming. You get a game that most likely will work on Linux, they get paid for their work.
