I get a lot of Eugine downvotes, and it looks to me like he very rarely[2] downvotes any of my comments more than once. My guess is that the same is true of Gleb.
[1]I think the large majority of downvotes I get are from Eugine. Of course it’s hard to be sure, and obviously “all my downvotes come from the deranged mass-downvoter no one pays any attentiont to” is a self-flattering hypothesis...
Agreed that not all downvotes I get are from Eugine. My point is that his downvotes obscure my ability to tell how many are real downvotes and how many are not.
Regarding your other question, I specifically asked for comments, not downvotes. That way, I can check if the user is a Eugine sockpuppet or not.
Reading some comments on your articles might give you a hint.
Please don’t try this “all downvotes I get are from Eugine”. It’s obviously not true.

[2] Perhaps never? I can’t tell.
I’m happy to report that few of my downvotes come from a single deranged mass-downvoter, but many different mass-downvoters.

I predict that saying “please comment on this rather than downvoting it” will not be effective in reducing how much it is downvoted.
“Owing to Eugine-related downvoting issues, please comment if you downvote this so I can update accurately” would probably work better.
Good point, will post something like that in the future—thanks!
