RE: The Purpose of Flags/Downvotes

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Shit sometimes happens, Bernie. With my upvote worth soo little these days my thought was to hang out on the #introduceyourself feed to put a cent on any dust that could be found, so as to bring their payout up to 2 cents.

To my surprise there were a number of posts found that were mis-categorizing their posts by using the tag. My thought was that my reward was so small that a good use of it would be to give warning flags to them (with an explanation why) in the hope that they may change their practise.

To my surprize arcange (a witness which has my support) had upvoted one such post. In my comment explaining my flag, arcange was asked why they supported the post. They replied that they had missed my observation of the mis-categorizing of the post, removed thier vote, and thanked me for bringing it to their attention.

Maybe you and FTG just need to communicate better, Bernie. 😎
