@pksam9 from what I have seen in four months most us face little risk if we are writing original content that is helpful to people of getting downvoted. Even when we do get downvoted as has happened on a few of my posts, the amount voted down is usually much less than what is voted up. Meanwhile, big downvotes often draw the attention of other big upvoters that will counter downvotes if there is not agreement on why the downvote happened. Getting a big downvote can even be a good way to pickup a new follower from a whale that consistently upvotes.
