RE: WHAT IS YOUR TAKE: REMOVE PROTECTION FROM USERS WITH 65+ REPUTATION

in #articles8 years ago

I was unaware that 65+ rep users are relatively immune to downvotes.

One strong case in favor of the argument to remove protection:

  • Hostile takeover - via phishing or other methods - where the hostile also abuses the account's posting privileges.

Imagine disturbing or pornographic materials without the NSFW tag that cannot be effectively flagged into invisibility.

Also - there is always the possibility of an account user actually being a wolf in sheep's clothing.

So yes... it makes sense to retain countermeasures regardless of rep level.

Sort:  

You are on point. Valid point you have raised.

That doesn't explain the recent (accidental?) flag. :c)

It was accidental, what do i do please?

I 'think' that you can reverse it if you want - but thankfully its not gonna hurt me in this case so don't worry. :c)

Thanks for the understanding
