Votes will be deleted!

All votes will be deleted of sceners who got the "Account closed" status for some different reasons. (btw.: All posts are not deleted).
WHY?

Hey! I don't want to loose any of my votes. I'm still the top-voter around and don't want to see any of those kilos drop!

Votes for inactive users (account closed) are not deleted. They just don't count. :)
So if a user get reactivated the votes are back.

Why? Well, no other reason than we just thought that only votes from active users should count back in the days.
Sometimes accounts are closed for a reason - fake accounts fx, and surely votes from fake accounts shouldn't count.

Post are not deleted - no. They are often part of some context which will be lost if post just dissapears.

I agree with gpz. This voting shit has caused nothing but trouble. It's a means for assholes to downvote people they don't like, and for suckups to upvote people they do like.

We all know what quality is and where our own work lies on that spectrum of quality, voting becomes reduced to a popularity contest, or something for people with confidence issues to dwell on.
