i can't speak for everyone. but maybe because your recent posts haven't been about surfing? you've had a bunch of awesome surfing related posts that have been well liked ...

yeah - maybe we should change the name of the site to surf report because apparently I can't be stoked about anything else...

the whole voting down posts feels really personal, and i struggle with it, but they way that i see it, we all get to lob things at the homepage of stokereport, some stick, some don't. it's a learning experience about what people want to see in this forum. it isn't a judgement of what is good content or bad content ...

here ... i'm throwing this an upvote, just to get this conversation back on the hompage, even though i wasn't super psyched about the dog video.

haha - I don't blame anyone or take it personally, I was more curious about why anyone might vote a post down in general. I enjoy stoke report, especially when these questions come up (surrounding reporting, etc) All lots of fun, specious reasoning, anti-logical, subjective, whatever the case stoke report will challenge your mind (maybe)

cool ... clearly the semantics of the down vote are loosely defined ... "that was a shitty report" or "i don't like your opinion" or "you're off-topic" or "you're a bitter troll" or "i'm in a bad mood" or "i hate your in-jokes" ... hopefully in aggregate it all adds up to something meaningful ... meaningful to some at least.
