RE: One downvote cost 50% ($350) - this seems a bit extreme

in #steem9 years ago

what I describe is a special case. party A posts about party B, should the public see the assessment of everybody other than B, or everybody + B?

when B is a whale, he can literally cut the revenue in half or to zero, which for content not about B is the way it works. My point is should there be some sort of special case for this. I guess since we are allowed to upvote for ourselves, maybe to be symmetric it makes sense for B to be able to downvote.

I was just surprised that one downvote could cut the sizeable reward in half

No crusade here, just asking questions about a brand new system and possible improvements
