High School baseball two-way pitcher/outfielder, car enthusiast, technology whizz, Inkitt author, Die-hard Arizona Diamondbacks fan. Currently, in Kajukenbo, I rank as an orange belt prepping for the purple test. Writer of DemonFall, Multiverse Mischief, and Crimson Resolute. Casual Seattle Seahawks fan.

My Strategy for reviewing a question/answer before downvoting it:

• Read it over one more time, maybe I'm the one who's wrong.
• Research the answer myself, see what I come up with. If it checks out, leave it as is.
• Ask myself: Is it really worth downvoting? If a question gets a score of say, -10, and is not or cannot be deleted, it can stick around as a stain on a user's profile for a looooong time.
• I just straight up don't vote on anything with a score of -5 or lower. The point has been made already, no reason to downvote it more.
• The only exception to the rule above is if the post is blatant spam/ad, or if it's rude, offensive, deliberately insulting, etc. Then, after a downvote, I flag it.

• Quote: "You never know who will see your images hanging. And I like that. I think you never really have control over the things that you do." -Luis Gonzalez
• Number: 0. It is my jersey number. It is also technically the first letter of my last name.
