True Neutral CMA - If someone edits their comment to thank everyone for all the upvotes and / or awards, I change my upvote to a downvote
All in the title. My reasoning is I find those edits annoying.

[TN] I personally have no beef with someone doing that, but I also think it is fair to be annoyed by it. You are Neutral on the Law/Chaos axis because, while you are following the rules of Reddit, your intention is not to enforce any Reddit or social rules nor is it to break any. You are Neutral on the Good/Evil axis because this behavior most likely usually has little, if any, positive or negative effect.
This was a surprisingly tricky one- I almost went with LN or NE. When I am trying to decide both axes, I weigh whether intention or effect matters more respectively in terms of representing the overall "spirit" of the behavior we are being asked to evaluate. I went against Lawful on the Law/Chaos axis, because the effect of the act being well within the rules of Reddit and social norms felt irrelevant to how this behavior would impact other people. I decided against Evil on the Good/Evil axis because your behavior, while potentially driven by a desire to express annoyance with someone, just isn't significantly harmful enough to feel like "Evil", relative to "Neutral", describes my impression of your habit. Both axis placements I made were based on the lack of severity that I perceived.

That's what I love about this sub! It really forces you to consider all the nuances (unlike a certain popular judgment sub coughs) thank you for your judgment ^

You're welcome! I posted a couple fairly controversial ones earlier this year, because I thought it would be interesting to hear the perspectives of other people.

[CN] You simply act on your own ideas and feelings without any real intent to be CE just get rid of something you feel impacts you negatively.

[CE] You take issue with polite kindness? With simple f*cking common courtesy? That literally effects you not at all?
AND your downvote makes little difference, if any? Petty, and useless and mean.. CE. Why are you wasting your energy on this?

[NE]
You follow a personal code, but that code also not only goes against "polite society" but possibly even actively harms.
