They are probably voting it down because they have no idea what you are trying to ask (it wasn't me - I'm out of votes for another 12 hours or so :) I don't think it is necessarily worth voting down, but you should probably edit the original post and make the question clearer. Using the chatterbox is also an excellent technique when you want to ask a question and are not sure how to phrase it. Don't worry so much about the negative votes - just clean it up a bit, perhaps give feedback to those ho have already answered it below, and it will rise up again. Negative votes on a post can be very disheartening, but it happens to all of us. (Except vroom of course)
