Remove the downvote option and a persons user page.

Remove the downvote option on a persons user page.

Noticed today when I clicked on a phukers user page you can view their post history. Next to their posts is the downvote/upvote option. Maybe that feature should be removed from the persons user page as it could be easily used as a way to downvote a user into oblivion very easily and quickly. Currently phuks is wonderfully drama free and maybe I suffer from post voat fatigue syndrome but my first thought when I saw that was how it could be used for harm.

You got thrown off by the title I think.
I don't think removing them entirely is being suggested. Just the arrows on the user pages.

Oh what the fuck.

The post content did not load for me, I refreshed and its there. My comment didn't post either, the submit button kept doing nothing.

POOOOOOLSAKER @Polsaker

There had been two posts, one got deleted.
I think you tried to reply to the one that got deleted, while you were writing your reply.
Not a bug.

I apparently am posting like a mad hater today. Nice catch.
