RE: Steemit Is A Scam! How Bernie Sanders Screwed Me!

@james212 No it's appropriate use of flagging for a whale to do this. They are pulling momentum out of a post and then spreading it around. Agreed about the devs making this more granular.
What impacted his per post earnings was too many posts that day. He still pulled in multiple kilobucks, but he had to work harder for it because of all his posts were in competition for the same limited supply of money.

@wlliambanks. If it is appropriate for a whale, then it is appropriate for any member to do this. I think it is better idea to address the issue by tweaking the programing. I seems that the up-vote/value allocation logarithm is not tweaked sufficiently to deal with highly popular posters likes like @Dollarvigilante or others that are sure to come.

@james212 I think we're both right. My point was that as a whale, bernie had a duty to push down content he didn't feel was appropriate. 1000 minow downvotes couldn't have had the same effect as a single bernie vote, and so you're right too.
There needs to be more granular options available.
"Flag for abuse" vs "I downvote"
