The Downvote Epidemic
Greetings Steemian's
It seems as though there are some people creating a mass amount of accounts, just with the purpose of downvoting.
I've spoken with quite a few people in regards to the issue, and it's the same story over and over.
New accounts, with no posts, randomly downvoting users for no reason.

Why would they do this?
I've attributed the reasons to the following:
They lack creativity.
They have no idea how Steemit works.
They have no life.
I simply cannot think of any other reasons why one may do such a foolish thing on Steemit.
Here are the accounts that have downvoted me thus far.
Congratulations for the mentions. You guys suck!!!
If you think I am bothered by your downvotes, think again. It is entertaining to me, and I am going to pop a bag of popcorn and watch Steemworld for incoming downvotes as soon as I post this. Please, by all means, consider this an invitation to downvote me forever, because I don't care. The joke is on you for finding nothing more creative to do with your time.

By all means, carry on...
Much love,

They are just newly created account with no value literally :) Downvoting any post without mentioning the cause is anti-social.
Yes, it's a foolish waste of time. I just finished my bag of popcorn. They didn't downvote me in time for me to laugh, but I am sure they will soon enough.
LOL, I actually felt honoured! My first downvote! And now I have 2! It's such a shame how some people just can't see the value this platform has, and I'm not even talking about financial perks. Yeah, no life....I'd say.
For sure, it's sad indeed. There exists, a plethora of different things you can do with Steemit, and this is what some people choose to do? To me it's so perplexing, I can't help but to laugh.
Thanks for stopping by @misslasvegas :)
There are trolls everywhere for sure. (And my thought is they have no life.)
I haven’t been downvoted as of yet, but I am just waiting for my turn. 👀
I hate to say this, but you may have just made yourself a target by commenting on this post.

Luckily for you, their downvotes will do nothing to hurt your account. I hope they leave you alone though.
You are right. Trolls are everywhere, and that is a fitting name for them.
Thanks for stopping by!
