Why am I getting so many down votes? And what even are they?

I asked a question to one of my favourite game's sub reddit, and got so positive responses, but I had -1 upvote. After some clicking around, I found out that my post had a ratio of 22. Is that good? I am extremly confused. I feel like down votes aren't good. Don't sound good.

Thank all you good people in advance! :D
