Downvoting is not the problem, if this are own downvoting or upvoting, but, they are use the power of others delegate and put people on their blacklist for no clearly defined standards, like they have done with me, for example.
They put me on their blacklisting program, just because I have use AI and not mentioned it. Their have no such proposal or project about how to use it exactly. HW team have nothing about AI on the date of 28.02.2003 (the date when they blacklisted my account overnight) - not even a post about how to use it.
Couple of days latter, after our conversations, they have created a post about how they wont support AI, blabla - this is not a proposal, nor a project.
And this is not ok to blacklisting people just because of own opinions and wishes.
Whoever is on this list here:
https://spaminator.me/api/bl/all.txt
is not be able to earn anything, ever. Because, they will use all the power of others (over million on HP) to downvote all you do.
And this is not what Hivers and community have voted for. It is not ok to use power of other to destroy accounts and communities, just because of own opinions and own decisions.
It is not ok that we let them to do whatever they want. For example, here, they upvote with spaminator 100% on a comment with NSFW image, why?
Looking at my account, my posts are problematic, but, here, the NSFW image is not problem? Moreover, they upvote it.
Another problem: they upvote with adm account on Chinese stuff, like this one: "oflyhigh" , every post of it, why? What is there special? Are these Chinese words of gold?
This adm account is not for own wishes there, it is power of our communities and users, who maybe are not aware how HW team use it, and not to use it to milking Hive. The users like @ocd, @ocdb, @abit need to know to whom they have entrusted their power.
They owe us an explanations about this behaviors, because, that's the power of Hive users, not own power.
Hope the Hive communities and users to wake up and stand up, and ask these HW team people, why they do such things, and why they milking Hive in such manner.
Thank you for sharing such a well-expressed piece on some of the many problems with Hivewatchers. I've experienced and seen them drive new users away with their threatening intimidation tactics.
Thanky you for understanding the problems we have here. All over the Hive, the problem with these HW people is ongoing, and more and more people go away. Look here too, newest ones:

https://peakd.com/hive-121566/@kryptodenno/eine-ara-geht-zu-ende-an-era-comes-to-an-end--
and many other posts and comments...
Hope, we un-power the HW team that is now on the tron, and go with a new one, voted, polled, and decentralized one, from people to people.
It's crazy to me how threatening they feel entitled to behave in their comments towards other people. I'm personally not a fan of AI images for many reasons so I generally don't upvote them.
I don't go around attacking other users because I disagree with their way of expression.
