It took time for me to follow the different links in your end of the road post but I have to admit I am still not clear about the downvotes. Given that people in here, with big or small investment, came for the money (aside from the community, duh!), downvotes should only be done on extreme cases. So why on Earth were you downvoted? And how frequent was that for you to totally stop writing?

As covered in my post, I wasn't ... You may wish to think me in the way I refer to myself, from time to time - a contrarian ...
How so? Most everyone else, if they quit at all out of frustration with downvoting, do so because they have now experienced firsthand what they have likely witnessed happening to others. Not me ... Why?
Simple. At least, to me ... The "in my face" attempt to bring down another Hivian was unacceptable to me, in general. In particular, these actions are destructive to my investment. I invested to have it increase in value. Read the first part of my post, where I cover how that has gone ...

Agreed. Note well I did NOT say I disapprove of downvoting entirely, as is true for some (usually those who have suffered from it firsthand). I appealed to the very few accounts on the Hive blockchain that actually can make a difference, to take a close look at this. Details in my post ...
Response? "Crickets" ... As expected ... Technically, I did have a DM with the ... "manager" of HW, at the request of someone else. I will not characterize that other than to simply state it was a waste of my time ...
I am still here writing. Supporting others. Having "severed" the link between doing that and ... "getting paid." Human nature being what it is, if anyone is willing to consider the Hive blockchain a ... "social experiment" ... then we all have our opinion as to how that is working out ...
I've made my decision and +$25,000 is now gone from an investor who should've made that decision much, much quicker (covered in "Strike 1" of my own comment to my post).
Thank you for the questions. And for investing your time in reading my post. The response here is hopefully helpful. If you have any follow-up questions, comments, and / or concerns, please feel free to let me know.
