Hmmm, this is interesting, will work to resolve some of this @hivewatcher this is possibly why we saw a huge drop in users.
Seems HW's may have downvoted a lot of our users, given that they even downvoted you @lindarey.

Yes...thank you. it's super disappointing.
I'm addressing REAL-LIFE issues small businesses face.
Hardly $EXY but not threatening to anyone.
The power of their downvoting is beyond the "just keep scrolling, nothing to see here" scenario evidently.

It's good that you ultimately stayed. They're an abusive entity and take themselves far too seriously, cumulatively causing more harm to legitimate users than the little good they might do here and there.
There is no reason for people to "verify" themselves, as this is not the point of a blockchain-based social media platform. If a person is being plagiarized, sure it's a good idea for them to be alerted, but this entity presumes guilt and automatically takes negative action. It's a very unhealthy way to act in a space that's supposed to be communal and friendly.
If I could vote 1,000% to THIS, I would!!!!! That's why I was soooo confused.

There have been a few (ab)users that received downvotes past 2 months. Mostly those accounts that kept failing to verify (like lindarey) after perpetual requests or those that engaged in abuse like plagiarism, spam, etc.
None of the accounts were blacklisted except re-abusers or those that failed authorship verification.
You seem to have been absent for the last few weeks so you were not up to date with abuse in dbuzz.
Wise decision, this is no way to run a chain.
