I didn't (and can't, because you replied to me) downvote, but since the downvoters are not sharing their reason, I guess I'll share my thoughts on it: I think the "quite some people at HN just enjoy downvoting" is potentially offensive as well as an overgeneralization, and they probably don't like either or both.
Aaaand downvotes for this as well, so I guess that means this is not it?
