I've noticed this a lot lately. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. A lot of people are complaining when they get flagged, as if it is something new to the blockchain. I don't know if that means more flags are being given in general, or they were just oblivious to it for so long.
It's always been there, but people seem to be more sensitive these days. It's really obnoxious. Reddit has upvotes and downvotes, this isn't fucking new people!! I guess everyone is just used to Facebook where all you can be is happy for everyones worthless posts.
