I think I am being harassed or something by a bot. I am suddenly finding myself victim to automatic downvotes (posts and comments) by someone with a very offensive name. They will probably downvote this comment. I don't know how to make it stop, but I post all original content and put a lot of work into each blog. I feel like instant downvotes are preventing me from generating as many rewards, but I'm pretty new so I don't know if this is true.
Apologies if I am asking the wrong people, I just wasn't sure who to ask. If there's a better place to post this, please let me know.
Thanks so much!
