RE: Hey guys, I am being downvoted by a guy with 80,000 Steempower. Just wanted to ask why??

in #downvote7 years ago

I think I am probably an exception to the rule honestly. I see a lot of spammers lately. I think I will start to flag spam stuff now. When i first started here I didn't flag almost anyone because I didn't want to get into a fight with someone. But I think it is safe to say that the community would rally behind me if I am trying to improve steemit.

Sort:  

I would really suggest against flagging

  • your rep is low
  • your SP is going to be low after the delegation is over

People will retaliate, and unless you outgun them, it gets too messy

Moving on to the moral, not the practical, I would only police your own page for spam, not hunt it down all over Steemit

People really need to worry about themselves, their own page and their followers. Outside of that, it's out of their hands.

The fact that people feel it's their right to punish behavior, that is allowed on the platform seems a bit too righteous for me.
