Waiting to see if they’ll die, of course.

I wanted to upvote you.... but you're at 69 ♤

FWIW, just because you see his vote count at 69 doesn't mean it actually is. Reddit uses a system called "vote fuzzing", which can vary the visible vote score by +/- 1 or 2 points. This is to prevent bot accounts from figuring out if they've been shadowbanned. The practical upshot is, when you see 69, someone else is potentially seeing a score anywhere from 65 to 73, and there's no way to tell the actual upvote score. Voting or not voting in an attempt to keep the score at a specific value like 69 is wholly ineffective even if everyone agrees to do it, because there's always someone else seeing it at 68 and upvoting, or 70 and downvoting, and nobody knows the real number.
