The vote up/vote down option

Is it so important to see how much your or someone else’s contribution is valued? Our collective contribution is very important because together we build the community, exchange experience,, validate each other, I was surprised in the beginning when I found out I’m not the only “alien” in this world. And this is because of all people’s contribution, also yours. While I understand the need to feel valued, I think the down vote is ok, if someone doesn’t like some post, they have a right to express it. Maybe some sort of “medal” next to the avatar would be an option. 

It's very much a bullying related trauma. effect. A stark reminder of being regarded as a lesser, more inferior, person than others.

As my daughter would say 'no problem' You hadn't annoyed or upset me. I just needed to explain things.

Yes, that’s bad. I was also bullied and myself feel inferior. I’m sorry if I triggered you, that was not my intention. I like your Posts and I’m happy that we all can “meet” here online.
