Greetings, fellas.
<br><br>
At [id://161504] I was talking on something that resambles the subject I'm approaching here:
<pre>
I often see people downvoting a beginner-type of post...
</pre>
Well, I just saw that it happened with the following node: [id://164219]. Don't you agree with me that's unfair to downvote this guy?
<br><br>
He is clearly making his first steps on Perl and he is polite, interested and curious, very good qualities in a programmer specially when talking about beginners.
<br><br>
I'm not his/her lawyer nor his/her father, but I think this is the perfect example of a misguided downvote. Shouldn't we think twice before throwing downvotes around? Shouldn't we encourage him other than downvote him just because he asked something that for some of us is trivial?
<br><br>
I know that each site member use his/her votes freely and it's not anyone business, but don't you people think I have a point here?
<br><br>
Peace, brothers and sisters.
