    Are you trying to find the question ban threshold on Meta?

    Congratulations are due. You have managed to get yourself question banned on Meta, a feat few have managed.

  • If (as you suggested in your previous question) you want to get meta upvotes then consider asking a somewhat more constructive question. Am I allowed to annoy other users isn't really a great question

    The arc of your questions on Meta, moving from "how can I become a moderator" to "How can I get banned" to actually doing so is... not encouraging.

  • @Oded To mark this momentous occasion, a badge should be created called the "david", for getting question banned on meta.

    @Wooble actually, it's quite impressive. Daunted by the difficulty his initial challenge presented, he then set more reasonable goals, and was able to accomplish them. Real success story, when you look at it the right way.

  • @Mansfield - [status-declined]. Badges are there to encourage certain behaviors. And getting q-banned is not something we would like many to achieve, on Meta or otherwise.

  • @Wooble - are you suggesting the OP became a moderator before getting banned?

  • He did that in 5 days. A new world's record! I think I held it previously at 35 days... :oP

    @LBT The next time we should provide that to users before they participate. Not once they are on life-support.... ;)

It is possible to do, unless your vote is locked (which happens 5mins after a vote has been casted and is up until there is an edit to the post).

It will upvote, then "un-upvote" then downvote. Then "un-downvote" then upvote... and so on. It's pretty straight forward. It won't stack the votes.
