RE: Flagging is an act of violence and it is not profitable. Why do it?
I followed you because of an excellent comment you had left on a post. My solution for flagging was to simply make it cost more VP. https://steemit.com/steemit/@vimukthi/a-philosophical-and-economic-outlook-at-steemit-sbd-and-flagging-and-suggestions-for-a-better-future-based-on-positive
I'm opposed to making flags regular as they are given the same power of an upvote while the good in community far exceed the bad. Upvotes vs Flags is a zero sum game.
If there are 50,000 active users posting, a $500 flag would only redistribute each of them a cent. An author who earned $5000 a week (which is deemed huge and unfair) only cost you 10 cents. What's with this war for 10 cents?
If more people earned more, then more people would compete for the same topics, style, content making that $5000 spread among few people. With flagging everyone will get their 10 cents, but nobody will get the continuous publishing of the content.
It's actually Voting Power you spend and your vote is given a weight based on the SP you have. So please correct that mistake.
Keep an eye on YOYOW, TRON, ALIS.
Happy steeming you intelligent non-violent person :-)
