QuestionLooking for a song
Sorry for posting here, if not ok I’ll move the post. It is a GC song:-) it was posted a while ago, it was on YouTube, a young woman singing. It started with “you’re not a woman” and the theme was that despite the dress, the hormones, the surgeries, etc, he’s not a woman. It was a great song, which I later found on Spotify…but now, when I looked for it, it wasn’t in my playlist anymore.
Does anyone know what I’m talking about? Thank you!
Would it be from people downvoting older things?
Yep
Worry ye not over imaginary internet points
Thanks. I wasn't worried so much as disappointed--I was so close to a nice round number.
I might use a treasure map font to start a "Worry ye not" list for myself though. Many more things to add to it!

Worry ye not over imaginary internet points
I’m not so sure about that. My points have decreased three times over the past couple of weeks. By fairly large amounts. I have rarely posted in that time. While it’s possible a few people dislike me enough to find one of my few recent posts and then downvote my older comments, I don’t know how likely that is. I thought maybe some accounts were deleted. But I’m not sure it’s accurate that if an account goes away, the upvotes they gave go away too.
Maybe if comments/posts are deleted, then points from upvotes are deleted, too? Couldve been from some routine housekeeping -- maybe the mods deleted some older posts that you'd commented on, and upvotes went poof. I don't know if it works that way.
I actually noticed mine had decreased a little bit the other day and I don't think I've posted anything highly controversial in recent days that might've attracted more downvotes than usual. I'm not overly concerned about it, but I was kind of wondering what was going on with that.
I don't know if it's someone disliking my comments and posts enough to go through my history and downvote a bunch of old ones, or if it's some other benign explanation instead.
It’s not from new downvotes, it’s from removed votes from banned accounts. If we think someone we banned was using the downvote button to target individuals, certain circles, mass downvote in a rage, etc, then we delete their post history because we don’t actually want people feeling discouraged by people downvoting their recent content. But it deletes all of their vote history.
Thanks for the info!
