Is there a way to tell who is giving me the thumbs down?
I've just noticed that someone is giving nearly all of my answers a thumbs down. I only ever answer when I know the answer to a question, so can only presume that someone is doing this to be petty; presumably for competitive reasons rather than for the interest of the questions asked.
Oh poop. Bingalee probably has a point there. I am being stalked to the nth degree online and in real life by an ex boyfriend at the moment, so I guess this could quite feasibly be him. *sigh*

You have a stalker I think.I have one in another section who,as well as giving me TDs on all my answers uses every opportunity to insult or abuse me in her answers.I have no idea why she does it & I have no idea who she is,apart from her YA ID.

People give TD for every conceivable reason. I once read a post saying that the poster gave TD to answers he considered too long to read. So he tried to make his own illiteracy the answerer's problem. Sometimes people put TDs just to indicate disagreement. On my phone, I've accidentally given people TD because my screen is so small.
You will never know why you get TDs. Just know that they don't mean anything. It is not worth worrying about.

No, that information is not given since the only reason to know would be retaliation.
