It doesn't bother me in the least, because there have been several times when I've given a very simple factual answer ... like the temperature at which water freezes for example ... and I've gone back only to see that I got a thumbs down rating by someone. How can you give a thumbs down rating to an answer that simply states a proven fact and nothing more? That's when I realized that some people's lives are so boring and empty that they actually get a little charge out of giving people a thumbs down for no reason at all. Once I realized that, the ratings lost all meaning for me.

I never go back to check if I get a thumbs up, thumbs down or if anyone responds. People ask a question, I give an answer and that's it. Why should I care what other people think of my answer?

Some people just go down the line giving thumbs down to all the answers. So, I don't take that personally. In fact, I never do go back to look to check my thumbs.

I don't get mad but I do wonder why the thumbs down. But at the end of the day, everyone is entitled to their own opinion!

I don't generally care but I often wonder if when you go down the line and everyone has a thumbs down accept one do they really think they are fooling anyone. I usually give them one just for good measure.

I really don't care. I make my point and move on. I rarely go back and look at my past answers so I don't know if I've gotten thumbs down.

If it's my opinion then I really don't care. But if it's an answer based on facts it kinda pisses me off at people's ignorance. Or if I was just trying to be funny and people give me a thumbs down then it's like them saying I'm not funny - that kinda pisses me off.

Not anymore people like to give thumbs down even with out reading the answer. They see your a top contributor ad give you a thumbs down. So don't worry about it. I think personally they should get rid of them. People don't use them properly
