RE: Total Whale Abuse: A Form Of Censorshp by RandomWhale

in #whales7 years ago

Disagreeing is fine and should be done in a civil manner, but his post is no long visible, it's difficult to find.

Censorship aside, he lost money, taking money away from someone you disagree with should not be ok.

Sort:  

The money wasn't his to begin with, it's only potential payout. It's his once 7days are over and he gets payed out.

Besides, every social media site has a upvote and a downvote button and they’re both used all the time, why should steem be any different?

...but his post is no long visible, it's difficult to find.

What do you mean? I went to his profile and I've pushed the SHOW button and the post is there. It took me 2 seconds.

He didn't loose money. He didn't receive the POTENTIAL author reward for that post. You see how these two are different?

Very true. There are lots of things you can do. But that doesn't mean you should do them. For an example you can walk into a school and shoot the kids down. The gun doesn't lock itself. It fires all the bullets. Ability doesn't mean it's a Right.

In fact when an account down votes another account without first engaging in an attempt to resolve the issue through conversation, it is abuse.

Before spreading misinformation, you should probably read the rules and FAQ's of this website, especially the part that talks about downvoting. I posted that part here.
