If not all they can do effectively is vote me down and since I am a small user as you pointed out and don't make much I can just get around 3,000 Hive that I can convert to Hive Power to delegate on dlease.io for a daily payout to make up for what I would lose each day. I may not have massive Hive Power but I believe I have good discernment and creativity and maybe that's just as good in a fight if I am pushed into action.
