I didn't downvote you, but one reason some people did might be that if all you have to say is "nice read", you can just upvote the post. Downvotes are a way of conveying what sorts of comments the HN community does not see as adding any value to the conversation. (I realize people don't always use them that way, but it's still worth considering that view of it.)

I upvote many posts though. I generally only comment on the one's I find most interesting. I would not be able to find the post again looking though everything I upvote.

No worries though. I won't be bothering you guys with my upvotes and comments any longer. You regulars can down vote everything I ever posted if you like. It's clear n00bs aren't welcome here. I won't be coming back to your site.
