RE: Just Another Topical Remark About Downvotes (Bonus: A Survival Guide for Steemians)

in #steemit8 years ago

Love your level headed way of looking at issues...but I don't like flagging because someone is making too much profit. I haven't been able to explain why, I understand people can rig the voting system to their advantage. I think that should be addressed. But if a whale favors someone posts, I don't think that's wrong, just because someone disagrees with someone else's favorites shouldn't give them the right to take away their profits.

Sort:  

To accept praises (upvotes), one should also accept criticisms (downvotes). Definitely not wrong getting favoured by some, but there's bound to be disfavour too..

shouldn't give them the right to take away their profits.

But the right is there.. the downvote is there as part of the design..

Your right...I guess, I'm still researching. I'm mean we have the right not to vote and down voting against spam, trolls and such...but I'm still going to ponder the down vote that removes profit.

Ain't a profit until its realized.. :) I understand how such a position can turn into hell though, but that's for another time..

We shall see how this plays out. I bought a pound of popcorn for the event!

I've been popcorning for the past 8 months.. oh did i say i gained like 8 kilograms too.
