RE: Steemit's Current Flagging System Will Lead to Unwanted Censorship

in #steemit • 8 years ago (edited)

Flagging does have some other penalties you didn't mention:

  1. It uses up voting power
  2. You get no curation awards, so every flag you do represents a lost curation award.

    Thanks for letting me know. In the post I was talking about unwarranted flagging, not flagging in general. I'll edit the post to make it clearer because I hate to spread misinformation. Those penalties also seem insignificant to me. Do you disagree?

    The penalty for one flag isn't huge, but it can add up. I guess I felt this more because I used to do a lot of flagging.

    That would make it a form of theft then?
