Then how are those two subs that banned OP for down voting able to see he was down voting to ban him?

Like...

There's blatant evidence that yes, they can see that...

And your response is "nuh huh" and you expect that to matter?

Hell, I had one mod DM to "let me know" he could see I down voted his comments and to remind me that down votes aren't for disagreeing.

I just blocked them, and that's anecdotal. But look at the mod logs for either of those subs, they do it fairly often, and I'm sure others do as well.

You're just wrong man, let it go, no one cares.
