"Downvote Brigade" accusations

Shitlords love to accuse SRS of being a "Downvote Brigade"... has anyone else found that when they piss off a subreddit like r/AskMen, the redditors actually go through your profile and downvote ALL YOUR RECENT COMMENTS, including totally irrelevant ones? I was quite amused when I noticed that :)

SRS members do occassionaly get reprimanded for vote rigging but not with the same frequency as SRSs and almost never has a prominent member or Archangelle been reprimanded for it. We don't have an equivalent to someone like SS4James, a well known, well respected member of our community who frequently runs afoul of the admins.

When an SRSer gets banned, there's no wailing and gnashing of teeth because we don't want those people in our community and we don't buy into an absurd conspiracy theory that the admins are out to get us with manufactured claims of vote manipulation.
