You’ve presumably stated your reasoning in the grandparent to elicit feedback; the feedback you receive is in the form of that comment’s karma score. Speculatively (I didn’t vote), it’s not a punishment but rather a “I disagree with upvoting posts based on sarcastic humor alone strongly enough (signal/noise and all that) that I will express my disagreement via voting when I encounter such a policy”.
Don’t make it personal by construing such feedback as “punishment”.
That makes sense. Thanks. I was not trying to ask for feedback on my voting. There was a belief stating that I did not vote, so I corrected it. I can, however, see why it was interpreted that way. I didn’t take it personally. “Punishment” seemed like the most accurate word, but I do not care that much. I was just surprised.
