First person plural perspective seems really weird to read #111

Reading this page in the point of view of someone that has been downvoted and clicked on that link, I would find it really awkward to read sentences like We have asked a question, but we have not stated what research we have done.... Does we means me, the downvoted user, or you guys, SO community?

Well, it has been discussed here https://github.com/WillSullivan/idownvotedbecause/issues/23 that we should avoid using pronouns, so should I update this page and the other similar that I may find?

If you'd like to. I've been doing it piecemeal as PRs come in on this or that page. Knock it out and that's one less. Thanks.
