I doubt you would understand.

You can try, I'm open.

I know it help to distribute to the rest of the community, but sometimes you take 100% of rewards. I take the example of @arcange, do you downvote him because you think he's abusing or because you don't like him ?

I don't downvote people because I don't like them.

Ok, it answers my question. I will analyze further to understand more.

Thank you for your replies.

Downvotes affect rewards. Some may think that auto-generated posts don't deserve as much as they get. We all have a say in the rewards distribution and that can mean adjusting them downwards.

I think that the problem isn't just a question of reward. It affects the reputation too...

It does, but it generally takes a lot of downvotes to significantly change that. You also need a higher rep to affect others. We need these tools to deal with abusers, but anyone is free to use them as they like.

Arcange changed how he posts to resolve the issue anyway. Marky has done a lot for Hive and I don't think he wants to wreck it, but he will act where necessary. I've always found him very reasonable. Have fun on Blurt.

Yeah... I see he is earning 2k HP peer week with the curation rewards... I'm not sure if he is well-placed to lecture others... or criticize Justin Sun !

I should stay out of this if I don't want to be on the blacklist just because of my opinion...
