Do you write comments, and then not submit them?
tailingoff: Yes. I was heavily downvoted for a couple posts defending an unpopular opinion in a busy discussion. I didn't flame but got flamed. I sincerely posted my views and I guess everyone decided I was an idiot or a troll. Because my  account is trivially linked to my real name I've been posting fluff to push the discussion off of casual viewing on the front page of my comments so I can abandon my account.I'll keep reading because the comments and selection are still good, but I don't see any reason to stick my neck out again. One easily-Googled example of a generally high-quality community decide I suck is plenty.
