One guy banned me from 18 magazines for downvoting him. (Side note: this is why being able to see downvotes is bad. Even if anyone could see them by spinning up their own instance, that’s a lot of work compared to pressing 2 buttons.)

I was only subscribed to 1 of those magazines, but it’s still annoying to wake up to 18 ban messages from someone who got easily angered from a downvote.

I’ve blocked the guy, but is there anything that can be done to stop this from proliferating across the site?

    I have a Tampermonkey extension which hides posts after an upvote/downvote. Because of this, I’m voting on basically everything in my subscribed feed.

    I do want to call out some concerns here. I’m not excusing op’s behavior, but indiscriminate downvotes is the kind of thing I’d say we don’t want here and I’d say you’re both in the wrong even if one of you is farther down the path.
