          Read this

          If you upvote a comment that has -3 votes for example, it will become -2, so it is still shown as 0

            Do you mean small amount of negtive is shown as zero,so plus one is also zero?? seems it is a bug and the vote value and contribution is not stable..

            and I think it is more sentific to show both positive and negtive votes as well as topcoder forum..

              If a comment has -2 you'll see it as 0. Then if you upvote it, it becomes -1 and you'll still see it as 0.

              This was actually added for a good reason as there is often a form of conformity with votes — if someone starts getting negative ones people tend to give him more negative votes basically 'agreeing' with the previous voters. I suppose hiding positive votes is not needed since nobody really loses from excessive amount of positive votes.
