RE: Downvoting on Hive: a sensitive topic

in OCD2 days ago

Overrewarded is not the problem for me.
downvoting a small account by a big whale can be a problem.
For the big whale the downvote is peanuts.
For the small account it is a big loss, espacially if it is going on on each posting.
It feels like censorship.
Who is the judge to decide what is good content and what is bad?

Everybody. That's why you upvote in the first place ;) Or do you upvote bad content?

No, but why the downvotes?
I have never downvoted anything.

And that is perfectly fine :) Downvotes are just another tool that might come in handy very soon in a mass scale:

I don't see a lot of small accounts being downvoted by whales. Unless they are misbehaving that is.
