My stake is well under 1%. If you think that runs the system in some centralized way, you don't understand how these things work.
We're all (stakeholders) going to vote (up and down) on rewards and that's how its going to be. Anyone is free to participate whether they like how other stakeholders choose to allocate rewards or not.
You were involved in flag wars before and this has been an issue since then, I am just proposing a simple solution that will help to clarify downvoting and ease tension. Today when users are downvoted they are left wondering why this huge account just downvoted its content and typically there are four reasons for a downvote, why not have an automated comment or memo that notifies the user in a brief explanation why there was a reward disagreement and how that helps the community grow. When a downvote happens the user knows that their content was downvoted because of a rewards disagreement and not because this influential account hates you.
I'll leave a comment explaining every downvote as soon as others start leaving a comment explaining every upvote. And secondarily when many accounts frequently receiving large upvotes start posting about why maybe those upvotes votes should be reconsidered.
Upvotes and downvotes. Total after 7 days is what counts.
this is already going to be implemented on peakd and you dont have to write anything it is auto
I dont really understand why you wouldnt want to implement it when someone upvotes something you can surmise that they liked that content, when someone downvotes you have no idea why they downvoted your content
Hive is growing and that means new users who dont understand any of this so I dont really get why you wouldnt want to better explain it to people who dont understand why they are being downvoted, you just assume that every user on hive knows how upvoting and downvoting rewards works and when we speak about it 95% of the time we are talked down too making it not worth it
Now you are making a good point but the solution is better onboarding tools and "How does Hive work" FAQ type materials (which could include helpfuf posts).
People who are NOT new users making self-serving posts whining about getting downvoted as if it is some sort of unexpected mortal sin are NOT helpful in assisting new users with understanding how Hive voting works.
Smooth I am not talking about those accounts and I don't think any of my posts have ever been downvoted so I dont know who you are subliminally talking about there but I'm talking about losing accounts to other platforms simply because they think they are being targeted and if it was just one person I would not be writing this comment right now, downvoting is only viewed that way because it isn't understood.
