Don't worry, @therealpaul, the downvotes weren't toward you. They were part of an "experiment" being done here. See @timcliff's latest post about it.

actually, "the experiment" is part of a new conspiracy theory (now where'd I put my fucking tinfoil hat again...?)

Ha! Well, I see all those high-caliber downvotes now as a sign that my post was so great, it threatened the entire Steemosphere with it's reward potential.

Thanks, that helps, I had no idea that was going on-- interesting.
