Well ... the welcome page says

>Empty comments can be ok if they're positive. There's nothing wrong with submitting a comment saying just "Thanks."

Seems kind of weird that you'd instantly downvote such a comment, but eh, who gives a damn about karma


My first forays on HN were marked by similar mystery downvotes, and I still get them from time to time. Don't worry about it. HNers are just a fairly fickle bunch, is all.
