Downvotes are tied to Steem Power and Voting Power just like Upvotes. However, I'm not clear on how this counts towards your curation rewards, if at all.
Unfortunately no rewards for flagging.(your voting power just decrease )
The good "flaggers " are heroes or big shareholders :)
Thanks for confirming. I suspected so - but this never showed up in the Vote distribution, so I wasn't sure.
I've seen @berniesanders spot a plagiarized post and wipe away a hundred upvotes in one go. :)
