That’s the thing... until it is implemented in code... this is how it works. Do I like it? Not really. It’s a blindside at best. But when behaviour is clearly unfriendly... I guess, until the process is improved, I’m ok with it. I know your mad about it... but imagine how the owner of this account (that’s posted this post) must be feeling right now... if you think about it... and use this emotion to feel for the guy... maybe you won’t downvote him next time... especially for something so absurd.

Thank you for saying so. Yea just blindsided and no communication. It made this a much more stressful experience then if should of been working out any issue. I appreciate you taking the time to speak. Cheers
It's kind of counter to what you preach that people discuss first prior to giving downvotes and this response is rather convenient for the act? nah man, I'm saying don't tell me people should talk first before throwing downvotes when you can't do the same thing here. It's not like I'm making this up. I'm not mad, I expected flak whenever I enter into the drama this is how it usually goes. Just found it funny to be preached about due process and what not only to be treated like the same evil fought against. Makes me think it's just a bunch of lip service under virtue.
I didn't continue downvoting the guy and removed my downvote (from this account because the others are dust votes), on those posts that haven't paid out yet anyway. You assumed I wasn't being considerate? I should have just kept my silence and leave them to to do some guess work than be civil, yet here we are loving each other's company.
When I see unfriendliness(especially in the comments) it’s fair game. The sentiment is already plain for everyone to see and laid bare in the comments... there’s no need to go through the mental gymnastics of explaining when it’s there to see.
Systemically I think we need to improve. Yes. It will result in a friendlier Hive.
Just because the laser pointer marks the spot doesn’t mean that the damage hasn’t already been done by the bazooka.
Well you're kind of right about not going further as the more we continue the more I'm getting convinced about not regretting anything. Thanks for helping me reaffirm my convictions. You go do your moral moral policing and we can go on our merry ways. You're no different from the stuff you preach against. Here's an unsolicited advice, when you disagree, just go downvote the hell instantly without any explanation why or explain right after is optional.
Don't preach things like "due process and decorum" when you you're doing the same stuff you disapprove. You instantly carpet bombed my comments and the only thing that surprised me was reading due process and how downvotes are bad when I wasn't given your audience to begin with. You jumped the gun there. I don't have to explain why I upvote/support/like something and I don't have to explain why I can dislike something.
If you're going to give me sanctions for expressing what I think, that's cool, I respect that about decentralization but never go on a high horse being in the right when doing the same stuff your perceived villains would also do. Not everything I believe in can be agreed on and the same goes for everyone else here, we just find some grounds in tolerating everyone else as the closest thing we can get to peace.
You're still welcome to give me downvotes though, not like I didn't know I'd get flak if I started using the downvote button. We have already reached a conclusion here as far as I know. Good luck on your project.
Thank you for your feedback but I think I have adequately explained myself to you.
I have no reason to downvote you for sharing you opinion. This is and has never been what this was about.
Comments are important because they tell us exactly who we and the people are around us are.
I believe that what we are doing on Hive is also an opportunity where humans can socially evolve. This is an opportunity for us all to innovate how we human.
And due process is important... unless the writing is clearly on the wall (as in your case.) You knew that you were downvoting based on your opinion... so why argue back when things get reflected back your way?
I really do hope that Hive dev’s innovate a process to downvotes... until they do it’s going to be like the Wild Wild West... only it’s theWorld Wide Web / Blockchain.
Thank you for expressing yourself intelligently and also keeping things respectful even though you and I don’t seem to see eye to eye about this topic...
I’m still adamant when I say a friendly, marketable Hive is at stake.
Have a good one and I hope your day is a good one.
