hello. I know this is irrelevant with your post. but this is only way to communicate with you as you dont have recent post. and I wonder if there is any reason why down vote on my post.
I dont know you well. but I want to know why it happens and if there is anything I can do about it.
I cant say I'm the best steemian but I'm trying it keep going. so it will be nice if u tell me why it happens.
thanks :)

Hey there, I just downvoted to help balance the rewards. I felt the content was over rewarded and was done with bought votes. That’s it.
it will be nice if you tell me the meaning of the balance. Have you read my post?
what kind of posts should have how much vote? What kinds of post shouldn't have how much vote? is there a limitation of rewards? I have been joining steemit over 3 years but never heard of that even in the steemit guide line.
Balance is important but wonder who decide it and hope know that if someone try to control things there is always arguements.
You said that's it but I dont think it is that simple.
As I said by keeping writing posts investing on steem and voting to other people I have been trying this steemit keep going.
I dont think I deserve this.
Anyway thank for the reply.
I can only tell you the meaning behind my own actions and how I use my stake. It doesn’t speak for the whole platform, only myself.
I read your content and felt it was over rewarded. The fact that you buy votes did also encourage this thinking.
It’s not about any one person controlling things. Others may upvote you, just like I downvoted you. It’s about everyone agreeing, it’s about each stake holder using their stake to show where they think rewards should be allocated and at the end of the payout window, consensus is found and the author is rewarded.
You posted one photo and then bought votes to remove more from the shared rewards pool then the value your post brought in imo. Many may categorize this as bid bot abuse.
With the new economic changes of hf 21, bid bot abuse is not being tolerated like it was previously. Something you may want to look into.
Also though, even without bid bots, downvoting content due to feeling it is over rewarded is part of the system and should be a normal part of the platform.
Would you have asked me to explain if I would have upvoted your post instead?
Let me know if you have anymore questions.
Again thank u for ur reply.
But what do mean by bought votes and bid bots?
I havent used any bots to have more rewards nor buy votes.
Wonder if means I buy votes by paying something.
Anyway as you said there is downvote function here.
it doesn't mean dislike but I felt so too.
So I asked you and got an answer now.
But again wonder if there is a balance and who can say its worth contents to have how many votes.
I understood you dont think mine is worth it.
thanks.
I’m not saying I don’t feel your content adds value, just that I felt it was over rewarded. The original intent of downvotes was to balance rewards and not “punish” people. I don’t use them for personal reasons, just for balancing rewards or fight spam/abuse etc. Please don’t feel it’s a personal attack on your content, as that’s not the way it was intended. In fact I have downvoted my own posts due to them being rewarded too heavily, it’s not personal.. it’s just helping to allocate rewards where I feel they should be etc.
