RE: WHALE DOWNVOTING AS A MEANS TO EMPOWER MINNOWS AND DOLPHINS – IS IT WORKING?

in #steemit7 years ago

That's very interesting... However, I don't agree with down voting for the sake of experiment at another users expense. Down votes should be reserved for poor content! If you're putting out good content, unless someone genuinely perceives your content as unoriginal, or just plan bad...there should be no down vote and you should not suffer the consequence of reducing your post payouts that you probably deserve! just my .0002 cents ;)

Sort:  

I completely know the feeling, but with the freedom to upvote however one chooses also comes the freedom to downvote however one chooses. Opinions about the purpose and requirements for downvotes will vary, but as long as people are able to exercise their freedom, they will do it in different ways... we will see what happens! Thanks @jaybird!

Ya I understand what you mean, and, also somewhat the point of the experiment being discussed. It just kinda sucks that someone who is generally putting out good stuff get's targeted. Isn't the point of this platform to reward users for putting out good content? Not penalizing them for it...

Right, I know what you're saying.
