It would be a good feature for people to be able to down vote threads that have unspecific names, are posted in the wrong place, are topics that have been posted before or just generally don't make much sense. all it would need to be is if say 5 people clicked to down vote it, it would move one space further down the page. Similar to the way you can push specific comments up.
That would do the trick, I suppose. It might still be abused if a bunch of trolls from places like 4chan gathered together, and then decided to spam a topic with downvotes until it wouldn't be seen again.
It would be a bit like a DDOS, I suppose, except it would be downvote-spamming instead.

I'm on the CSM team, but I've retired from Minecraft modding for the most part. I made Cliffie's Goos.
I'm an old-timer, been around since Alpha. MC: Windows 10 edition is like the uncanny valley, almost modern Minecraft but off in every way.
I have an XBox tag, but only because I needed one to try the Windows 10 version. I don't have an XBox.
DDOS is a "Distributed Denial of Service" attack. It takes sites offline because hundreds of thousands of bits of gibberish are being thrown at said site's server.
4chan is a website, that, from what I've heard, is the gathering place of all trolls on the internet. :-/

Or you could just report the thread if it is spam, nonsensical, in the wrong section, etc. It'll get pushed down eventually if people would start ignoring these threads instead of replying to them.

That works too, I suppose.

It would work, but then the poster might not know what they have done wrong and would probably post it again. If they got a notification saying ''your thread was down voted because.........." Then at least they know why.

If they have done something "wrong" then the mods will notify them.
