If that is your concern and if this does not gain traction then I can explore writing a proposal to instead incorporate downvoting to proposals and witnesses but that is going to create the inverse with the same issue but with witnesses. How do you think recent court rulings about censorship being ok because centralized peeps like facebook and twitter own the content. Just an assumption but wouldnt downvoting other people's content that they can show a history of utilizing and living off of the earning can cause some interesting scenarios? I do not know but if spam is your issue that is understandable and I guess my answer is to not vote for the proposal, create one that implements downvotes fairly to both proposals and witnesses as well as content or just accept that the community approved the watchers proposal to do just that live with the culture that is currently in place that might encourage larger investors to come in and possibly do worse actions.
Maybe the fact that on blurt you have to pay something for every interaction slows that. You have a pay a little to post and comment so maybe that will help stop mass abuse all platforms will have some spam. I mean Facebook managed for decades with spam. I think maybe being able to block people or build communities with mutual ‘friends’ could help. Maybe we need to let society sort itself. I mean if people plagerise you can still sue them.
Which is why I am aiming to eliminate how large stake holders bias can affect the community through downvoting in a non transparent way by simply getting rid of downvote option or engaging in productive conversations for solutions that are productive and not isolating to both parties.
absolutely I have noticed the main thing is a lack of understanding or discussion just a sense of if you don't do what I do or say, or don't believe the same things as I do then your a bad person unworthy of any income. There is no discussion or trying to understand where everyone is coming from. I have just seen lately people seem to judge those who are not 100 percent powering up, some people need to use their earnings to invest in materials to improve, some to live off, the site was developed with a 50 50 split to enable people to have an investment and an income simultaneously. Yes it's amazing when people can invest everything they earn and wait for maturity of their earnings, at which point they too will withdraw their money. But someone is not lesser for not doing that. I feel like people are not looking at the fact everyone is not them, everyone doesn't have their exact same life set up etc. I mean it is fine of course to choose not to vote for people who do not do the exact things you deem to be acceptable/ worthy but quite another to be able to take away all their earnings. I really wish you success with this and I support it. I want to love hive I really do , I don't want to feel dread and fear logging in. I actually think having more than one platform helps the space, it brings more awareness to blockchain platforms and encourages improvement and growth. Costa and Nero and Starbucks do not hurt one another, if anything they all contributed to the take away coffee sector growing.
Sometimes it does look like there is a total lack of empathy and understanding from some of the downvoters - to the point of bordering sociopathy in some cases.. However, at the same time, the combination of avoidance of commentary, posturing of superiority and general anti-social psychology tends to also point my mind in the direction that some of them are carrying out an agenda under the guise of being unthinking asshats.
Thank you as well! This proposal already is getting more support than expected! Ultimately this is about spreading awareness and having productive conversations to implement healthy and sustainble changes to our beloved chain. It is people like you that helps keep this attitude within me and others alive with postive comments and attention! Thank you for being you!
Oh its fine... today my hive power delegation ends and have been exhausting my HP past two days to utilize last bit of HP. I have a @dynamichivers account I will be reviving andcurating/posting with again. Will be more art centered but there are people like @ura-soul I need to support and engage with more.

Yes the spam and plagiarizing is the issue I worry about. Blurt has no downvotes, I wonder how they will deal with that when the time comes.
Steem had a huge spam problem that was largely taken care of via downvoting at the time.
I agree that downvotes right now are being misused though.

sorry the REST of this community is SO SLOW at catching up."THEY" absolutely make things WORSE when "THEY" determine THEMSELVES the protector of everything and everywhere...
It's SICK, IMHO.
HIGHEST Regards!
