NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Yes, admins can see all the votes.
You're kind of a downvote collector so it wasn't easy, but I didn't actually see all that much brigading. Seeing some repeat usernames and one occurrence that looks like someone did go through your profile and downvote most comments about a certain topic once, but that's all I could find. Most set of downvotes are confined to a given post.
You're really just getting downvoted a lot by a lot of different people. Your downvotes on this post have nothing in common with your other downvotes.
EDIT: Nevermind, there is indeed 2 people downvoting every comment from OP.
well it happened two times because every post for the last 12 hrs or so that had 0 downvotes suddenly had 2 and it happened because i have a less than popular understanding of the situation in ukraine.. happened a day or two back as well, but again its not of great concern where my up and downvotes rest, just good to know it can be confirmed one way or another.
The one user went way further back than 12h, I'm seeing it well into 3 weeks. That user hasn't downvoted this thread yet.
In the last 12 hours, this whole thread is the only thing on your profile that doesn't have at least 3 downvotes, most much more than that. There's only one repeat user across your entire profile, although you do have all your comments generally downvoted by the same users within a thread which isn't super unexpected.
well i hope for his sake he's a bot.
Dude's got some balls downvoting all your comments on a thread calling them out for doing that. Gonna make the LW admin's job easy.
Gotta give it to em: it's funny tho
Real user with many comments close to a hundred upvotes, although also a decent chunk of removed comments as well.
Why? If it's a human, imagine how much time and effort they wasted to achieve absolutely nothing. Although, in this case they did achieve something because by making this thread you let them know that they indeed succeed in getting under your skin. Do you know what this kind of users hate the most? Being ignored.
