So, I was just looking at this tip/trick - Sql Query Execution Order[^] and, okay, the spelling isn't great but the content is interesting enough - thought it worth a 3 (it could be expanded and felt like he'd cut it short). However, prior to that it had two 5 votes and two 1 votes. A little extreme. Perhaps voting should be tied to a comment - I know we've had this debate before but if the two 1 voters thought the post that bad, they should be prepared to say why or is the author expected to guess what might have caused them to vote that way? On the other hand, are the two 5 voters the author and a secondary account? We need to know these things, we demand to know!!!

been there done that (vote and comments).
Voting 1 or 5 and adding a "no comment" comment is more useless than no comment at all.
I hate witch hunting of all sorts (more so on the internets).
I'd rather be phishing!

I realize that there is no real cure for this malaise.

I disagree, I have some idiot commented an article down vote with a . I at least know who the person is and can discount the input. CM was kind enough to reverse the value and I refrained from returning the favour.

Ooh; forgot about the always excellent Pinal Dave and I think that looks identical to the tip/trick. How strange! Thanks for spotting that.

According to a very small number of members here, downvotes and 1 votes require no comment or initiator name. Punishment should be anonymous - whatever the stinky elephant that means.

In the not too distant past vote 3 and below forced you to comment - for several reason Chris decided to remove it...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Possibly, but it can't all be in vein.

Logic dictates that T Negative must also be taken into account.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

O dear, that was bad, but, on a positive note, a tad amusing.
