Probably because your tone was extremely aggressive. You think you provided feedback but it feels like you're trying to destroy the project. I'm not saying I thought that, but here's how it can be understood:
>> How'd you get upvoted so fast?
Sounds like "You're a fucking cheater, you gamed the system"
>> What are you using node? You don't explain how to run the server at all.
Sounds like "Using node is fucking stupid, and your doc sucks".
>> You got the POST part right, but you should be POSTing to a resource like.
It sounds like "What you built is crap because you didn't follow the X 'best' way of doing REST queries".
-----------------
Maybe it's because english isn't your main language. You could be geniously giving good feedback but it just doesn't *sound like it.
Maybe instead of:
>> What are you using node? You don't explain how to run the server at all.
it could be:
Why did you decide to go with Node? By the way, it would be great to have some documentation on how to start the server.
To me it seems you are reading what you want to read.
His criticism was legitimate, there is no reason to waste time nor energy on his "tone-of-writing". If his points are valid then that should be sufficient. Replies like yours contribute nothing.
I was answering his question of why he was getting down-voted, no more no less.
>> If his points are valid then that should be sufficient.
In theory, yes, in the real world, appearances matter. Being right is only one part of the equation.. if you can't convince the other person then it doesn't really matter whether you're right or not.
If you're giving feedback and it sounds like you're demolishing someone, chances are your feedback won't be listened to. It's not the end of the world, obviously, but you're losing your time and the readers too.
>> His criticism was legitimate, there is no reason to waste time nor energy on his "tone-of-writing".
The irony here is how by not having the right tone his feedback weren't understood correctly, and hence wasted the time and energy of most readers.
