RE: HF21 + Anti-Retaliatory Downvoting System (Proposal) = A Functional STEEM/Steemit

in #newsteem5 years ago

@por500bolos,

Hey mate.

You're right, lots of fixing yet to be done. But it is as imperative to point out steps in the right direction as it is steps in the wrong. If Whales and Orcas are embracing curation at the expense of bidbots, then I want to do whatever I can to encourage the sentiment.

As I wrote in my article, this is a potentially very important development. And, if something is done to make fighting abusive/retaliatory downvoting more practical, it WILL HAVE a very material impact.

Elementary my friend. If one only focus on cheerlead only one of the extremes, there is no way to perceive the imbalances and distortions that are being generated at the other end. This is like trying to straighten a dry leather by stepping on only one side.

Unfortunately (or fortunately) there are stubborn chaps like you and me who insist to step the dry leather on as many ends as we can afford. Yeah, even on the unpopular extremes where no one seems to want to step. :)
