Dislike is exactly what downvoting was intended for. You're free to use it for whatever reason you want. You should have known this already, the verbiage regarding flagging when one tries to flag is simple enough that one can understand that much. You SHOULD flag because you don't agree with how much something is making(reward) after all, much less because you disagree with them, heck, the only argument that exists here is that people are free to upvote as they please, but they shouldn't downvote as they please, because "rewards" or whatever.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
FROM THE OFFICIAL (UNOFFICIAL) STEEMIT ETIQUITE GUIDE
"rewards" and "This post is hidden..." "This picture is hidden." This............
I understood the downvote to be to combat SPAM, Bots, etc.
You use it to hide posts and take time and effort payoff (rewards) money from those that you don't like.
...and that is exactly what I see all over the internet in regards to those that have left here and why. Soooo many to ignore?
Completely Illogical.
What surprised me in this whole story is that a single downvote could outweigh several upvotes. I could understand if there were 6 downvotes vs 5 upvotes - the net score would be negative. But when one behemoth downvoter can use all his steam power to make half-a-dozen comments hidden and slash one's reputation three-fold overnight - that was a rather nasty surprise. Thanks again to all who helped me to get back on my feet.
You lost me in the first sentence.
You are for some reason not able to grasp the point.
Keep calling me names though it is fucking hilarious. These examples are priceless.
Continue your frenzy sir.
