I don't think the down voats silence anyone inappropriately because they are the first comments I like to look at. Judging by the other responses in this thread, this is not a peculiar consideration. The people that are truly being silenced are those with middling comments. Anything other than the extremes seems to be invariably overlooked.

After enough downvoats you are limited to only a few posts per day. So that ends up being censorship.

Fair point. Fucking spam has to ruin everything. If there was just some alternate means of spam control this could be avoided.
