First, I never claimed to be unbiased. In fact, in a comment on this thread I clearly stated that i am biased. Secondly, I did not set out to give a full account of the actions of the war on here. I only dedicated a few paragraphs to the background with the intention to give an overview of the lead up to the controversy. I didn't detail the flagging actions of Bernie for the same reasons I didn't detail the flagging actions of haejin; they are not relevant to the point I am making. My point is this; If the community feels that voting abuse is occurring, they will respond and that this makes those who would venture to do so think twice.
Regarding whether or not I feel your post should be censored, I don't. I have spoke out against it in the recent past. Regarding Bernie upvoting his own post for over $100, I just don't see it very often, compared to haejin. Here are Bernie's earnings for the next 7 days:
Keep in mind that that contains two abnormally high posts over $1000, at least one of which he claims he will burn the rewards earned. Now, compare that to the picture I posted in the article of haejin's rewards. 22K vs 2K, which one would you prioritize? I'll address some of your other concerns in response to your other comment.
