RE: Full detail about steemit... What to do & What not to do???

in #steemit6 years ago

And you could have downvoted my comment. I don't do revenge flags.. (yet, in fact I encourage you to downvote it)

Flags are just a part of the system. They are good and they should be used. They are a tool of curation.

Sort:  

Let's imagine I flag it...
Impact is double 0, nor your rep, nor your reward would be impacted
Even if 10th of small accounts donwvote it, it would not have any impact, right ? Because your rep imunizes you.
Is what I just said correct ?
Then you get what I find unfair
If what I say is incorrect, then I present my sincere apologies

I believe I would lose a bit of money, unlikely a lot.
Yes, you are correct, my rep would not be touched.
10 might be able to impact .30 cents. But not my rep.

Here is the reasoning behind what you are calling unfair.

Stakeholders who hold Steem, should care more about how the site is used. (Doesn't seem that true) I didn't design it, you'd have to contact Dan with complaints. ;)

So, those with the most stake have the most influence. This is also a reason to buy and hold Steem.

I understand it can be hard to adjust and understand how it all works and how. I went through a phase of thinking it was unfair also.

I gave the guy a tiny flag for upvoting a shitty post for $300 bucks. I hope it serves as a warning to him that he could lose his money if he continues that. I usually flag one a day, because it is my responsibility to clean the site and protect my investment.

Agreed.
But big fishes with big reps sometimes do abuse the system too, but the rep is immunizing them.

But thx for all your explanation from you and @silentscreamer.
I have a better understanding of it, I don´t totally agree with it, but at least I get your point :)

I also agree the Rep is flawed. Oh well, still my job to use the system to the best of its design. :)

:)
And now I rush for a well diserved rest :) 4 am lol
See you soon, maybe, or not, hoping to never face a downvote lol, as I am one of those who try to post valuable content, even if it is not appreiated by all ( of course).
