If a flag is rejected by the community, the flagger has potential to loose money.

Since there are no curation rewards for flags, a flagger is already losing out.

The solution would be, if the major stakeholders spent some time curating; rather than the excessive use of bots that result in overly inflated payouts.

True.

It wasn't a solution.

This, can't wait to see how HF17 will change this.

Hardly.
