Today, I found an interest but duplicate post. See this Post In the post, the guy who pointed out the post was a duplicate got downvoted. The downvote might be from the copycat, making me consider it dangerous to give any author the right to downvote a reply.
Authors should not be the police. This doesn't feel decentralized. This make it possible for authors to censor any comments that is against he/she.
Therefore, I would like to propose that authors should not have a right to downvote a response, and possibly to hide the response from other people by folding it. Maybe an author should have the right to tell the content is inappropriate by replying below to ask others to downvote it, but never to downvote with his/her own hand.
Otherwise, a good-intentioned policeman may get misunderstood even by a simple downvote.
The original post is this one, a post regarding a Steemit debit card.
Oh, yes. I was the sad policeman.
