my ponymania cakelestia got surprising amount of downvotes >>3354108
but a diaper fetish picture nearby got far less of minuses
im surprised again

@Background Pony #CB1A
On desktop, I prefer scores to be hidden; on my phone, I like scores showing to provide a buffer to prevent accidental votes in the wrong direction.

cant please everyone

That’s why I go into settings and select “hide score”!

Alright, here’s the worst thing. It’s when you make one that you put all the effort in to, you add Evey effect and trick you know. You upload it and you wait to see what you get,
And the first vote you get is a down-vote, and it’s just like “F@#k!”

And you can see other posts from 10 or 20 minutes earlier than yours that have no votes, so someone diliked it so much instead of skipping over it like they did with the posts before yours, they down vote it.

@d1ckbitch
I easily understand the artist mindset when creating the most controversial image possible. As they used to say on /r/drama, “if you can’t find drama, make some.” Trolling is an art. Remember, the opposite of being in the featured box isn’t a slot on the wall of shame when sorted by most downvotes, it’s a net score of +4 with 0 downvotes.

@PUBLIQclopAccountant
Clearly everybody teamed up to make this picture as downvoted as possible, for the joke. I like the intention

The Donald Trump x Fluttershy, second to last scored picture, is interesting too, imagine the artist spending time into creating the most despicable, unlikeable artwork ever

@Sunlightsunshine @d1ckbitch
I’m still surprised that that specific troll got more downvotes than some Sonic OC mpreg crossover art drawn with Crayola® markers.

@d1ckbitch
I see why.
I took one look and downvoted.

@Sunlightsunshine
It’s >>186436 , all hail the King of Downvotes

What’s the most downvoted thing on here?

@Soobel
You can sort pictures by downvotes , but this will not make yours proeminently visible, as it’s only a bit below positive scores, far from the actual downvote galores

Btw are here options to search or align pics by scores? Or some club of thugs scarred of dozens of downvotes? :D
Big red numbers anyway affect eagerness to do such work. Or share it here at least.

@Soobel
10 or 12 is still a big number when it’s 12 out of 16 votes 😂

@Soobel
Bruh, look at the ratio, there’s barely more downvotes than upvotes ; and even though, the total count proves that this pictures enjoyed a decent success, even with controversial reactions, instead of simply sinking down the pictures history, forgotten

it’s all about interpreting the stats ; I’d say real downvotes lynching starts when downvotes are at least twice as many as the upvotes

@Soobel
I dare to guess that you acknowledge that your content is extremely niche and only few people have reasons to not consider it straightforward ugly. Second, your Celestia pic (for example) has about 4 times more upvotes than downvotes, so it doesn’t get mostly negative votes and is not in danger of possibly being hidden. Third, the Luna pic in question is IMO failed (if not made like this intentionally) and went into uncanny valley, it’s something with the eyes.

Heh people complain about 10-12 minuses.
I sould hang myself then?

Plus, I know what it’s like to get mass downvoted. And I know how disheartening it can be, and I wouldn’t wish that feeling on anyone else.

@SMT5015
I looked through all your old stuff, and I really liked it. Had an old book mythical feel to it.

And it really didn’t deserve any negativity it had gotten.

@DisgruntledUnicorn
Popular licences crossover (such as with Sonic, Steven’s universe as it seems here, etc) have the tendancy to be dowvotes magnets, I noticed

I saw this thread and I can easily relate.
I do have a decent fave/upvote count with my art, but I tend to notice that any images featuring my 2 OCs get more downvotes than usual. It really discourages me from drawing them more.
Also, one of my most recent images (>>2741874) just got bombarded with a bunch of downvotes. What’s so bad about it? I just redrew an image I made almost 3 years ago (>>1947178), and I’m glad that it turned out better than the original. But it seems everyone just wants to hate it and not see the improvement I’ve been making…

@Soobel
I believe the default filter hides images at a net score of -50.

@SMT5015
Still i dont understand why simplier 5 times fatter immobile blobs gain far better scores.

@Soobel
Oh, this one is indeed unholy. Whoever liked it, must be aesthetical masochist.

@Sunlightsunshine
Wow, thanks. Why all though? Also now I see older works pretty lame, so it is fine.

@SMT5015
I went through and faved,n upvoted all your stuff. I hope this helps to balance the negativity that’s been shown twords your work.
