RE: Is Down-Voting Just As Important As Up-Voting?
I believe down-voting is important as expression of opinion but it should not be abused.
Unfortunately, the way the Steemit system is set up. Down-voting an article also hurts a person reputation. There should be separate system for down-voting on articles and comments. Down-voting articles should NOT affect the persons reputation.
Unless they changed the system, I don't plan to down-vote much. My goal to down-vote is an expression of opinion and NOT a way to rob someone.
It only affects a person Rep if the person is lower . - Example if you down voted this post, the effect on my Reputation would VERY LOW if anything at all because I'm ranked higher than you. That's why reputation is so important its more than just a number.
But I 100% agree, I don't want to Rob anyone. I don't like the idea of someone using their money to take my money or vice versa.
