RE: Downvote Pool Deep Dive

in #steem5 years ago

You don't know WHY they are flagging, you only think you do, you again, do you even know that you don't know or are you so stubborn in your certainty that you won't consider it? There is no way to prevent people from abusing, be it upvotes or downvotes, exactly like there is no way to prevent theft, assault or murder. No system could ever exist that would be a sensible tradeoff, ever. I know this because people gave dealt with these problems for ever and absolutely nothing was ever thought of, let alone manifested in that regard. I'm not asking for names but data, percentages, quals for what you consider bad or abusive behavior, etc..

You don't know WHY they are flagging

Lol, it's really hard to understand the way these 'gods' are thinking.

To be serious: come onnn, they are human like you and me and obviously cannot stand different opinions.
I can read and think very well. And when I read the flagged posts, they obviously contain no spam, abuse or over valued rewards.

For example elected committees with enough delegated SP could be a try to solve the problem of flag abuse.

No, it's very concrete what I see and read. Don't throw in any mystique where there isn't any. Whales are human, I know humans and their behaviour. I cannot only read the flagged posts but also the comments of the falagging whales. That tells me enough for judging their reasons.

Yes, people already do that ...

No, people don't do that, only whales dare to do it. That's why I said such a committee needed sufficient delegated SP.

Prove it ...

Prove that you understood my comments, don't think, don't assume, don't believe, don't "see", don't "read", don't write. Prove it.

Then I prove, that I understood what I have read.

The problem is that you simply don't believe me that I can grasp the sense of comments I have read - a very normal thing in human communication. OK, I also don't believe that you can grasp what I wanted to say. You have to 'prove' it first.

Flag abuse is so obvious for example if a whale follows an account to flag every of its posts and comments automatically without even reading them.

What about proving that 2 + 2 (really) = 4?

From my side there is nothing more to discuss.

Yes people do that already.

No, they don't. They fear retaliation.
