Yea well you have good points, since it's a social platform, some engagement should be done... Also I can understand someone might need cash out to buy food or whatever, but should also support the chain and keep at least 30% here... Downvotes and upvotes can be both abused, upvotes as you said, downvotes can become abuse like I argue with you, then you set me on your autovote, that's not great
A other broken thing is autovotes on tag, like I can put a picture of a dog, add tag 'splinterlands' and splinterboost will autovote it
Yeah downvotes are way less used in an abusive manner than upvotes lately however, it causes a big issue IMO because many get used to thinking they can earn big with minimal effort and then see you as an enemy when you try to balance things out.
Yep same as when Marky used to downvote splinterlands posts, who got the downvotes saw him as enemy, but he was just countering some whale upvote abuse with steemmonsters account
So that's what it was! I got a big downvote and had now idea why. I thought I used a wrong tag or something, and asked via that direct message brain thing, but never got a reply.
Yea, I can't blame him tough, he had good reasons, you should blame the splinterlands curator eventually
I'll trust you on that one, I don't have too much insight yet to understand what was going on :-D But good to know that it wasn't my fault, that he just tried to balance something out. I really thought I had made a mistake in that post 😅
Which is a barrier for newbies as well, getting into the crossfire of whale-fights without having an idea what's going on.
Yea, the no explainantion is frustrating, might make people think to be some target... Although, for the little I talked to, Marky seems a guy you can have a proper talk with
