yep, my very first post on Steemit was about the flat earth discussion. it got down voted by some asshole without any comment. Why are people like that? I mean if you really feel so strongly about a post to INITIATE HARM against their reputation (i know you "anarchists" believe words are meaningless and feelings can never be harmed), at least have the guts to say why... and no weak sauce statements like "it is inappropriate" or "i don't like it". Use your big boy/girl words and actually give everyone a valid reason for your down vote. If it is worth down voting, it is worth an explanation. I assume you all want this venue to grow and not collapse under the weight of assholes? Prove it!

Oh and thanks for telling me how to down vote stuff. i had no idea it was the flag up top. i only used it once against a very vulgar and explicit post. Glad i did it but i should have said why. From now on, i will say why.
