I am here for a year now and I can honestly say that I do NOT like the flag option when it's seriously used in the wrong way! I do understand that sometimes its needed when someone steals work or takes advantage on things. But I have also seen in the past that good posts, mostly private posts got flagged for no reason at all.
I know what I am talking about because I as well have been flagged and had posts down to zero!
Now don't get me wrong, I am not only here to make money but when you see posts up making 300+ and way way more while other better posts get nothing and my own posts who only make a few bucks ( After using pay4votes mind you) get downvoted because???? No reason....
I am not a big fan of the FLAG but I do understand why its there as long as its used in the good way.
But what is a good way? What is good in my eyes might be very bad in the eyes of others... Conclusion.... The flag will always confuse me!
very good point , I agree with you. Thanks for this great comment.
