@teamsteem thank you for your feedback here because it took a big leap of faith to write this post and share this with fear of everything going wrong in mind. With what you shared we have an outstanding discussion here and I enjoyed reading what @dantheman had to say in the articles you shared along with your quotes summarizing.
After months here as an author debating the need for negative voting and the 12 hour negative voting only period, I am now happy for it even if that means sometimes I am on the receiving end of the negative votes. We all should have the option to express our opinion and use our Steem Power to vote as we see fit even if others do not agree because each of us have the other option to vote the other way.

I see that you had time to reply to @teemsteem but didn't had the time to reply to @alexvan? So you just ignore negative feedback ? This ain't the way a witness should behave
