It seems reasonable to deactivate downvoting a user's content from their profile page.
It's right now too easy to downvote all of one user's content from their profile page

I believe Reddit uses the following simple trick to discourage mass downvoting: The user page has up/down arrows on each comment, but they don't do anything. They remember state (so refreshing preserves the illusion of voting), but they have no effect on karma or post ranking.

Since this issue was created, we ended up deactivating the ability to dowvote _posts_ but not comments. Could use someone doing that.
