I think of downvotes like this...
1.) someone is breaking into a store to steal money that someone else earned. The store owner is inside and begins shooting. He may or may not kill (Lower to negative rep) the abuser. But it serves as a reminder of consequences.
2.) while an offender is breaking into the store, the community rises up and neutralizes their offender.
And lastly:
2.) just as a weapon can be used to defend, a bad person can use it to harass. Someone with 40k HP can destroy people's accounts with the click of a button. Someone with 15k HP can take the account of someone with 500HP to negative rep for any reason.
The last is a bad situation, obviously. Have people done it? Yes. But is it common, no. So why kneejerk because it happened a few times in a few years?
If you does NOT vote for him, he can NOT stole at all, is very simple.
@we-the-people here to prove #3 is @worldcapture
Because I spoke in favor of someone trying to hide her sins from Hive-Watchers, she gave life to “the wicked flee when none pursueth” and for all her shame couldn’t recognize someone saying her account wasn’t a managed account, and called me racist, and then I reported another account (a friend of hers) to buildawhale for skipping the plagiarism blacklist and bragging to me about it, and here we are where she comes to downvote everything I post because she assumes that I cannot afford to drop $500 in leased HP and fight back.
While rare that it is abused this way, it doesn’t mean that downvoting is a bad thing. It just means that she is a bad person and everyone she tricks into joining her is ignorant.
Wait, what? Hahahaha what are you even saying here?
You are a disgusting, racist, Islamophobic piece of dirt, that's why I flag you. And I will continue to flag you until you are gone from this platform. I will never accept any kind of racism.
And now get lost!
You said that’s where you found me lol
It’s ironic that the one who assumed that I was being racist simply because I suggested she has poor reading comprehension skills is calling someone else racist. Did you not judge me and assume I am racist because we are of different skin tones?
I don't even know what this post or previous conversation is about. All I do is flag everything you post or comment because you are disgusting piece of shit.
I obviously value anything a vote farmer and friend to plagiarists has to say.
Please tell me the significance of your relationship with Tron?
@we-the-people that’s not at all what happens and you know it.
It makes me wonder if you have been caught doing something you shouldn’t. After all, we don’t defend the rapist from punishment with “if women would just sew themselves shut...”
@we-the-people here is even evidence of #3
Doesn’t mean I’m going to change my mind on the subject. We need it to get rid of those who rape the reward pool.
Ask yourself why this person would object to this comment...
