Yeah this is the point where reddit has jumped the shark into evil territory: we are now only allowed to upvote things that are deemed good and proper. It's just another death knell for actual democracy and the will of the people.

Can they really warn you for upvoting now? I've received warnings for comments, but always by a mod of a sub, not reddit itself.
