RE: Peerplays Status Udate 09/01/2016
Downvoted as an announcement post with relatively little substance that is of interest to no more than a small minority of the current and prospective Steemit user base.
The launch date of a new prototype blockchain being announced we would not classify as being of interest to only a 'small minority'. Regardless, is this a signal to our organization that we should not be bringing our news and content to the steemit site which we also promote through our social channels? Who is this 'the current and prospective Steemit user base' that is the majority?
You are certainly welcome to post. But $2000 for a short announcement even with my downvote? (What would it have been without?) I really dispute that you have anything to complain about here.
We aren't complaining, but responding to your stated reasoning and attempted to reconcile the action to ensure we are not punished again for unclear reasons. Your second post now seems to indicate the first stated reasoning was not why you downvoted, but instead was for some kind of monetary judgement/punishment that you felt should not be merited to such degree. This is not the fault of our content as you first attributed it to, but how steem works. You choose to downvote it because of its popularity. Prior to downvoting a post there are suggested reasons for doing so, and we don't agree based on your response your action on our post was reasoned with such. While you have focused on the earnings, our concern is the negative reputation your action as inflicted on our profile that was not warranted. This is also how steem works. Was it your intention to also harm our reputation rating?
If you understand how reputation works, it generally follows rewards (edge case of being upvoted by people with negative reputation being ignored here as it doesn't matter). If you earn $2000 in rewards that means your reputation has increased. It has increased less than if you earned $3000-4000 in rewards, but this does not seem like a problem to me. Do you disagree?
