After a few minutes,,, I noticed that there was a downvote from me on your post

And I couldn't retract it

So i edited your post

After that, I was able to retract my DV,,, I upvoted it

I upvoted both the answers

Hope you don't mind

I don't often downvote

'Someone just downvoted my answer, probably the same random person who downvoted yours and apparently goes around downvoting thoughtful and perfectly reasonable answers without providing any rationale.

@DecapitatedSoul I appreciate your honesty. You are far from ignorant. I daresay you're well on your way to legendary. :-)

Decapitated Soul

Thanks :D

Literally, I'm on the way to 'legendary badge'

Only 3 people on ELU have that badge

Richard Kayser

@DecapitatedSoul What does Decapitated Soul mean? And how does one access the chat room?

@DecapitatedSoul Legendary badge it shall be then. :-)

Decapitated Soul

For chatroom...

It's a bit hectic process

Let me show you

Richard Kayser

@DecapitatedSoul Okay. Please do. I consider this useful.

@DecapitatedSoul Do souls have heads?

Decapitated Soul

lmao

I ain't seen soul yet

Richard Kayser
