Well, I think downvoting is at the end of the day going to be a needed function if Hive is ever going to actually compete with something like Reddit. That said, downvotes are not effectively harmless like they are in Reddit and actually impact a posts value and not just its popularity. As such, upvoting good posts has become the much more important action to take as upvoting will trend a post and lets the bad posts naturally fall out of view.
