Ask HN: I have 423 karma...why can't I downvote comments?

2 points by rufugee 15y ago ↗ HN

I used to be able to sometime after hitting 200 karma. However, in the past few months, the capability disappeared. I've looked through the FAQ for a support email address but didn't find one, and I don't think emailing pg directly is the appropriate approach (yet). Any ideas?

Thanks!

I think the new threshold is 500.

pg posted that he was changing this to 500 back when he was experimenting with changing the display.

Ok, thanks guys. Didn't see that post. I wonder why this isn't in the FAQ?
