@doctorspence, I've been hearing this idea that one's rep affects the capability of your downvotes but not sure it that is true to be honest.
@sneak who I believe was on of the devs for Steemit has said that rep is a UI value. This would seem to indicate that rep has no bearing on backend calculations. I believe that the sole determining factor of whether rep increases or decreases with upvotes or downvotes is rshares and nothing more.
If there was a rep 25 account that had 1 million Steem and that account decided to downvote me 100%, pretty sure that would tank my rep.
I plan on reviewing the code to establish this with certainty but if you are aware of a definitive article that proves your assertion, that would be appreciated and save me some time as well.
I am not using this account to attack his rep (as I said in the other comment) but to spam his posts.
Main account is flagging for hella lot more than this one.
