Downvoting is an important aspect of this community and to me is one of the most important aspect of this community but power they say can’t be manage by all, some people don’t allow their power to get into their head but while some people can’t even manage their self talk less of power.
Just like in real life people can buy their way to the top and some people get there with help and support from others but be it anyway this does not guarantee good use of power in your hands.
Downvoting in the past have caused a lot problems and even till now and their is no meaningful solutions to this problem, the advantage of downvoting is important but the disadvantages are best way to kill a system like pob.
This is a platform that rewards people for their hard work because writing a good article is never easy, so because we have some disputes in the past does that justify a good reason to downvote me?
Because you are writing what is not of my interest does that make me entitled to your downvote reward, how can somebody issued a downvote without a tangible reason ?
Why don’t we do things differently.
We should be hold accountable to every posts we downvoted. If you downvote a post because of plagiarism you should post a link where the post is copied from or anything related to the original content.
If you downvote any post your reasons should be started in the comments section and if you can’t give any reason for your actions you should be punish for this act. We have a lot of psycho everywhere that do thing out of our human beliefs and they are sent to jail for it.
Everybody should behave well and most of those people that behave abnormal are those people that the system don’t want to upset because of their stake but their should proper rule and penalties to people that upsets the community with their downvote pool.
People don’t like when rewards pool is being used to support shit post and we should keep same energy for downvoting good content too
Conclusion
Downvote will always spoil good projects in hive ecosystem because the best way to target a community is to have large stake and keep upsetting people by downvoting because one of the most painful thing in life is downvoting because the feeling is terrible. Don’t carry your life problems to this community if you have problems with somebody go to discord and iron things out abeg!!!
