flagging for flagging sake

Can you explain this a bit more? Remember that issuing a flag drains your voting power in the same was as an upvote does, so flagging just for the sake of it is a strange way to operate imo.

Sort:  

People are petty and have vendettas against others and feel empowered to stifle expression. Seems like when a "whale" gets on a power trip and targets you, you might as well move on to a different medium. just my 2 cents which doesn't even mean that much here.

This is 'proof of stake' at work im afraid. Unfortunately what you state does happen at times, but is likely to be a really small % of flags given.

Thanks for the explanation. Still learning all of the ins and outs.
