NP. downvote is actually when people with a critical amount of steempower mark down your post. that can result in the majority of your forecasted earnings being wiped away. good luck!

@attalis, gosh that sounds a bit harsh, but i have noticed a lot of copy and pasting happening, or very similar posts. I don't see a downvote button? Geez I feel dumb lol :)

yes some of it is needed, some is very harsh indeed. Only once you reach a certain status/amount of steem power you will have the ability to downvote. Normal steemers do not have the ability.

Ahhh, I see, that explains it, Diolch Yn Fawr (Thanks very much in Welsh)
