One more point: "Disagreement on rewards."

Lets say that someone with a vote weight of $10.00 wants to reward person (A).
Then in comes person (B) who says; fuck person (A) and downvotes -$10.00.

It really makes no sense to me, If I want to reward someone for their hard work at this or that, then why should someone else be able to interfere with that action? Can you imagine if something like that happened in real life?

Imagine that you are competing in a marathon with three prizes for the winners.

• Gold medal
• Silver medal
• Bronze medal

You run hard, and you run fast, and to your amazement you finish in first place. Then the second place contestant finishes the race like 10 minutes behind you, and boy are they pissed. Just as the race officials are about to reward you with your Gold medal the extremely wealthy 2nd place contestant says hold up, I disagree!

Long story short, three hour marathon complete and nothing to show for it. I don't know @biasnarrative, the whole scheme just seems so bassackwards. Steemians would be far better off simply voting for what they want, vs. voting against content they don't like to hear.

I'm sure you've heard of people bitching about reward pool rape, but what about reward rape, it's just as ludicrous. If you ask me the whole damn system seems like it's meant to get people fighting with one another. I just don't see the logic.

I could see where it might be forgivable for a whale to engage in regular reward pool rape, just so that when they wanted to reward someone, they could send it directly via steem transfer, without dealing with the hassle of downvote wars.
