RE: An uninitiated opinion - Voting behaviours

in OCD5 years ago

Laughing about your last line...Yes, British humour can be difficult for some to grasp. I would have got it though. I'll throw you a vote anyway, so the same result. :)

Thanks for adding some perspective to your own journey and yeah, coming back like that with the old-steem modus operandi would have caused you some pain I'm sure. You know now though, and I think are doing the right thing with your DV trail. It's important to ensure that abusers are addressed. We need to give them a chance to change their ways and if they choose not to then they need to accept that the community will address it for them.

There's a couple of nutbags out there at the moment who started heavily down voting posts for reprisal but are now downvoting comments as a way to attack the community. It is annoying for those being DV'd, but nothing more than mosquito bites in reality. It will will also be addressed, by the community, and we'll all move on.

Keep up the good work.

Yeah. My girlfriend gets the same 2 downvoting most of her posts. Somebody said that there was somebody that you could tag, and they will upvote you, to the same value as an incorrect downvote.

Who is your GF? I'll have a look.

I wouldn’t worry too much. They have very low SP, and the downvotes are of a small percentage.

OK, I thought so...Nah, no problem there...The two I refer to have a 100% DV value of about $2.50 each. When bettynoir starts getting those sorts of DV's let me know. It happened to me for about 3 months, on every post, and yes, there are people who can redress the DV's and work on addressing the situation.
