RE: My Response to dantheman's downvoting campaign against me
I do believe your posts are a piece of a gigantic shit. I, with my tiny account started downvoting them way before Dan started doing so - like 3-5 mo. ago . You should remember you retaliated by downvoting my post into oblivion in return. I also clearly explained why I am doing so in a comment at the time.
Anyway, what Dan did yesterday was not right! But not because your posts were or started to be of any actual value (except for your self and your upvoters ; as in sucking rewards)... but because he himself did the same ...sucking hundreds of thousands of rewards - 100K USD...no he sucked up probably way more...
Coming now and playing fair and just is just comical.... and let me not start on HE being the one who determines "evil and good" whales....
"The full of himself idiot".... should have been the title of his post probably.
EDIT: BTW downvoting - Because I do not belie wining about something posts bring any value and or should get monetary rewards!
Largely agree on this point and I removed my earlier vote on the post (given because it was well written and carefully presented in a non-hostile, non-divisive manner). I'm not 100% sure in all cases but I think I would generally come down on the side of these "meta" posts being "decline rewards".
A perfectly good reason the way I see it. The "flag" was once more made into a powerful downvote with a confusing icon and I think we should start treating it like that, while also making sure we are adressing the issue of it having too much power.
While I disagree with much of what you wrote, that part made it worth voting for.
Which part do you disagree with? The part that the 300+ ozi's post are nowhere near worth 100-300 USD each, or that @DTheMan has taken 100-300K worth of rewards for almost as worthless posts as ozi?
I don't have a position on each of those topics so far. I think both have provided good content at times and less valuable content at times. I've voted for both, but more recently so for @dantheman.
How much they made in the past is just not something I'm bothered by or bother with. But it's true that there are issues with the power that downvotes (still called and displayed as flags) have over users and content, just like there are issues with the ease at which some users get a big portion of the money when really good content often stays in the 5-20 dollar range.
