But I asked you. I do not even know Hive account@zaku and they did not downvote me for what seems to be no reason at all, but my assumption is that you may have done similar to them in the past and they know what the chip on your shoulder is and you are sending me to them to further punish them for something they did long ago.

It is not a very good representation of personal character to answer a direct and honest question with a clear deflection, when you could just answer my question with the same or just a tiny bit more effort.

Did I do something that is deserving of a downvote or are you just trying to discourage users from posting on HIVE and have them move to some place like nostr to spend their time and effort creating content and bringing value to an ecosystem?

I would think that you would want to encourage as many users to stay on HIVE as you can, considering you seem to want to see HIVE moon, based on your stake and content.

Downvoting a users content, especially when they have just started to produce it recently, is a good way to turn them off to providing any future value or content to the somewhat struggling HIVE ecosystem. It is even worse if it is coming from a witness and without comment or explanation, even after being asked politely for a general explanation as to why the content deserved a downvote.

I am not part of any HIVE war, that I am aware of, and I am trying to produce content that I feel would be beneficial to both HIVE and Splinterlands as a whole. I am not posting random and somewhat redundant content, I am trying to post quality, thoughtful content that expresses ideas and innovation.

I find it hard to believe that someone that I do not know in any context other than this specific interaction would come to intentionally try to discourage me for anything I have put out, especially someone who seems to be well empowered and invested in the HIVE ecosystem. I would think that you would want to do the exact opposite and let me know how I could improve my content moving forward to better engage on the HIVE chain.

I do not even really care about the tiny impact on the rewards for the post, I just want to know how I became a target of downvoting, which is not typically an activity that many well intentioned actors do without good reasoning.

So, I will ask again, could you please let me know what it is that led you to downvote me for the content I have created?
