RE: Quora's Censorship Never Fails
I'm really not concerned about humans doing downvotes however bad and troll-like they are.. But the system is flawed with these bot-like accounts who get some powers delegated and they are set to downvote each post automatically, whatever the contents are. It's very counterproductive.
To eliminate bots they halved the revenue and limited the number of upvotes, but at the same time allowed automatic downvotes by bots..
"They" never took any steps like you seem to think they did. The "revenue" was not halfed, and the number of upvotes was limited to better reflect how much it's possible to consume, in turn making upvotes more powerful at the cost of less upvotes, and nobody "allowed" automatic downvoting or bots, in fact, automation is consequence of transparency and freedom of expression coupled with Decentralization, so nobody is to blame like you suggest with "they". Lastly, there's no "non human" bots, all bots are ONLY humans, people who set them up and chose to express themselves in that manner.
