RE: A CENSORSHIP THREAT TO STEEMIT
I know people say there are two sides to things, but flagging is a mystery to me - I say it's not complex at all - flagging is pure bullshit
If we don't have flagging how do you stop a whale from raping the reward pool every single day for as long as the community still has some room to swim around all the self voting that will happen, just so that people can make a couple cents, if that, because when the whale pulls out the world of steem is fucked, and another whale will quickly step up to the successive rape of guaranteed rewards. The reason for flagging is game theory crab bucket mentality.
That is exactly what some whales are doing.
Including the whale who posted the top comment on this post.
You just upvoted him yourself FFS - now try flagging him and see how $745 vs $222 000 works out
Thankfully smack down kitty just had a crack at him and reduced his payout from $25 to $10 - but smack down kitty only has $100 000 to play with
if we don't have flagging how would that work without flagging, you missed the freaking whole point crying "that's what's going on now, look flagging doesn't work because it's not fair".
Sorry but flagging has a purpose, and it's not for whales to keep control, it's for people to remove rewards from content plagiarized, from spam, and from voturbations like above. Yes I voted for him before I realized he was the power voter who was voting for the comment, he is still correct even so.
