So you don't see the value of restricting behavior like voting rings? I am neutral in regard to this kind of regulatory rules as long as it is clearly indicated.
As what you said, Steemit is a decentralized blockchain application and seem to have no rules enforced. However, wherever there are human, there are rules/guidelines, be it explicitly setup or implicitly built upon time. I am still new (a small minnow), so this is still unclear to me. That's why I put out this post and hope to stimulate some discussion.
