  • Maybe I am the one who got downvote (talking about the CD Meta) rather than anyone else. So I have some idea what downvote represents? Even sometimes I ignore the person who had downvoted (but not his texts).
  • <h3>In your answer : </h3>
  • >First, look at their most recent post of the same type (question, answer, article, ...). If that post has a score >0.5 (that is, is positively received by the community), then allow the new post. (Note that this means that if their most recent post has not yet been voted on at all, the user does not get a free pass.)
  • Look everyone have their opinion. And you can't understand a person by his past. I may write bad posts yesterday and today I may write good posts.
  • A person isn't always same. Earlier SO was directly blocking people from asking without any warning. But nowadays they are showing a warning message on above of question field.
  • <hr/>
  • I know what had gone upto me.
  • > Someone said,"another person can never realize what had happened to a person until they are in their place".
  • There's several reason of down-voting.
  • 1. <span id="ref">[bad English](#bad_english)</span> (too hard to read) (this answer might be harder to read also :P (but I don't care of downvote :D))
  • 2. <span id="ref_1">[no research effort.](#no_research)</span>
  • 3. [don't have idea of basic things but doing advance things.](#no_research)
  • 4. <span id="ref_2">[Suggestion isn't good](#suggestion)</span> (talking about Meta posts)
  • <hr/>
  • <span id="bad_english">
  • Actually, when I was completely new to the community an user(not mentioning his name) had told me,"It's very hard to read your answer that's why I think other had downvoted". But that doesn't mean the post is bad. My English might be bad but sometimes I may write good content also. [bring me back](#ref)
  • </span>
  • <hr/>
  • <span id="suggestion">
  • Actually, suggestion may not good to you but it maybe good to some others. But if you judge a person by voting than it won't be good. as I said earlier, the last suggestion was bad but you can't say future suggestion is bad also. [bring me back](#ref_2)
  • </span>
  • <hr/>
  • <span id="no_research">
  • [Some people](https://software.codidact.com/posts/284414) may not have idea of everything. If you go to learn something new than there will be lot of things that you don't know. But before asking question they should search in internet if there's something relevant. That represents a bad post. And I remark them as bad post either. We should restrict them.

  • Someone had mentioned in a post that, there's <span class="button is-tag">participate everywhere</span> ability in your profile. New users don't get the ability. But since we are small right now that's why we are giving that ability to every user. I had asked in Discord once,"when we remove the 'participate everywhere' ability. I had shown them that some was writing questions too poorly and their reputation is negative(>50). I got no reply so I didn't bring that question again".
  • If anyone think that we should discuss about that than create a new question I don't have time to do that now.
  • <span>
  • I care of the question when you say that a single user have written lots of poor questions. But I don't want someone to permanently ban. Cause if you ban an user than they will go to create another account and he will keep doing it. So permanently banning isn't good idea. **My suggestion is to deal with users ability.**
