No one can really answer that other than the people who clicked the buttons.
I sincerely have no hard feelings here, but I have to point out the irony of questioning the downvotes you received but not those you cast yourself on kersploosh's polite request.
PS: FWIW, neither of your 2 downvotes are from kersploosh or myself but rather from random users.
Anyway, thanks for making content and contributing to making this is one of the more interesting communities.
