RE: Trigger Warning: I agree with @grumpycat

Awwww...you like that one? What about this one? https://steemit.com/sportsphotography/@r351574nc3/tucson-soccerfest-sunset

I spent hours in the AZ heat and sun waiting for that sunset. Grumpycat downvoted me to $5. Essentially, telling me my time was worth $5. Thanks @grumpycat.

I don't know what there is to agree with @grumpycat on. @grumpycat doesn't even agree with @grumpycat. @grumpycat abuses self-voting. @grumpycat has also bid on 6th day voting bots in the past 11 days.

AAAAAAND@grumpycat doesn't have any good points. Voting bots don't hurt the reward pool. They're a supplemental feature for a broken promotion system. People are responsible for abusing the reward pool they'd do it with or without the voting bots. You get rid of the voting bots and you still have people trying to abuse it one way or another. One really good example are self-voter (Oh? Like @grumpycat?)

Ok. Last point. Downvoting is a feature that was intended for the community to regulate/correct payout rewards for posts. It's not intended to punish people. It's intended for users to adjust the payout to what they believe is fair. So if you think a post doesn't deserve to be $1, you can downvote to make it appropriate to what you think is fair. That IS the way it's supposed to work.

WHICH IS COMPLETE ABUSE OF THE DOWNVOTE FEATURE@grumpycat downvotes indiscriminate of the content

IMHO, downvotes are intended to be used responsibly by responsible adults (NOT @grumpycat).

There. I've said my piece.
