The way I see it, is that 50% of the reward for any post for familyprotection is already going to go directly to the author's Steem Power, growing their account and helping them to earn more in the future. So I don't see why the liquid SBD should not be donated. It's win, win all around and I'm currently living on welfare, by the way, so I know about money being tight and still wouldn't begrudge that. I see the ca-co, fp and your votes as a gift, so I don't think that choosing not to upvote those who don't contribute is a bad thing. I never expected those upvotes anyway and was still planning to donate the SBD whatever it was worth. Now if you were suggesting flagging them, then I would think you were being too harsh.
Edited to add:
As for @hickorymack, I think she needs all the help she can get at the moment and what she is sharing has been valuable for the community too.
Thank you @life-relearnt!
I am liking the feedback so far, it seems a lot of our members are with me on this one, which I find very encouraging.
It is apparent that this community is growing in more ways than one =)
Bless.
Agreed, there is no reason to flag them. I only really raised it as a comparison, as choosing not to give an upvote is no bad thing at all. While it seems odd to me that someone wouldn't want to repay a gift of an upvote that large, obviously it's their own choice and it's also the choice of anyone else to choose not to give that upvote again.
We may only have helped one person so far, but it's still a joy to know that we could help her. Hoping fp can help many more to come.
There is no reason to flag them. At anytime one can go on to the links and see there are other FP posts that do not get on their blog as resteemed. My suggestion is that if a person does not donate back than their posts do not get resteemed. This is the only way to make it fair. As also we can not nor should not tell people what they can vote for. This simply lets everyone know that not only these people that have been resteemed are legit but they support FP by donating back into it after each post.
The point of donating is not about helping the author grow. It is about getting the FP account to grow enough and sustainable so that when someone has a need we have the collective funds to actually help them. And to have the funds to support and grow the cause. As far as I know we have helped only 1 person so far. There are countless others that need help and if authors do not donate back we can not help anyone. There is a enormous amount of need and we as a group can help much more than one individual. Which is why I am honored to be apart of it.
