It's good that there are those who return crabs back to the basket according to White Paper. It's good that there are those who do not allow several individuals to completely empty our pool of rewards. Thanks to them, we, the minnows, can earn at least a few cents under our posts.
We have too many abusers, people who want to get the system (in bad meaning). For example just take a look at @ damarth's comment section, $47-50 bucks for every f...kin comment. Is it normally?
I think flags for disagreeing with the reward is normal and healthy for the systen until they turn into personal revenge.
In a month, all the flags return about 6% of rewards to the pool. All of them together.
How much drama is 6% of your rewards worth to you?
A lot less than the 39 whales who get most of the rewards, I'm sure!
The rewards aren't returned to the pool for us. It has almost no effect on us.
The rewards are returned to the pool for the whales. It's worth ~50k per month to them.
