No good deed goes unpunished.



I hope that made you feel good!

Seriously, someone goes to the trouble of finding the archive link because the server is having trouble (note that someone else had mentioned it too, not just me), and it gets modded down. Why? What possible justification is there for that?

Then even mentioning the ridiculous modding down gets modded down further. Why? (and no, "because those are the rules" isn't a reason... did it ever occur to you that sometimes rules are wrong?).


Complaints about downvotes are boring, and are often made redundant when the comment is upvoted again, as happened here.
