After going through three days of my comments to down vote them all, you don't need help making yourself look bad. You handled that quite well yourself.
Ah yes, downvote a couple stupid comments you’ve made and suddenly I went through “days”.
How petty and sad is it that you even went and looked lol?
Coming from the person who just admitted to going through days of my comments to down vote them.
Also, for those watching from home, it was over a dozen comments. Not "a couple."
Really @plantfanatic@sh.itjust.works ? Doing this again?

lol, seriously? Do you check your comments religiously to see how they are being voted on? This has to be the saddest thing I’ve seen online in long while.
Mind you, from your comments we can see that you’re just an incredibly aggressive person and frequently get downvoted. So of course you would want to know who it is and harass them.
You’re exactly the reason public logs are an issue. You think every thing is a slight against you. Don’t say stupid shit, don’t get downvoted, what a shocker.
It's very funny to me that you do something petty and get caught, and your only defense is "oh yeah? Well it's actually sad that you noticed I did this."
The passive aggressive thing going on is harassing me by down voting all my posts. You're just upset that you got caught.
Obviously you think public logs are a problem because you got caught being petty and passive aggressive.
