RE: HF21 + Anti-Retaliatory Downvoting System (Proposal) = A Functional STEEM/Steemit
Backed up toilets ... don’t sink ships.
Depends if the toilet has flooded due to someone dropping an "immovable object" causing the excess pooey water to overflow and sink the ship ... imagine that eesh!
But it sounds like you're trying to bring in a kind of IOTA "tangle" side chain to steem where you have 3 people to verify the transaction (appeal to rebuke the downvote) before it gets actioned.
The only issue I can see with your idea of punishing the jurors who don't get back is... what if they are on holiday or absent soon after they were spotted online with your process? They are going to be punished for living offline? Seems a little harsh.
However, as we are entering a new paradigm where the users of a social media in web 3.0 can actually OWN A STAKE in the platform they use (unlike FB and Twitter), then it should really be up to the users on how they want the the community to behave.
It's why I've bought up some stake since the changes as I am seeing a huge change in the community towards bid bots (YESSSS!!) and that graph honestly brought a huge smile to my face. I've jumped on a bit of the downvoting as well and offered some people explanations about how they can better their content so bid bots are not used again.
There's of course a long way to go still and I hope that the attitude towards content curation continues moving towards the original idea of "Content should be paid depending on quality and value" - and it will.
That notion aside, you also have the fact that steem is a damn fast blockchain (3 seconds) and feeless, open source and can have any developer come on and build something. Magic.
They just need to employ someone who has some UX ability for the steemit front end because it looks like some one designed it whilst they were dropping an immovable object on a ship's toilet ;)
@nickyhavey,
So, the blockchain would only send a Jury Notification to those it detects are "active" and they would have 72 hours to respond.
But let's take it one step further: The system gives everyone Three Free Passes per year. Maybe you're really, really busy or maybe you watched a video of someone eating Brussels Sprouts and had a heart attack. Fair enough, we'll catch you next time. At some point though, you run out of excuses ... you're just not carrying your weight. That's when the penalties would kick in.
Thoughts?

Perhaps an "opt out" option would be better? People are automatically enrolled in to this mechanism when they sign up and then they can only opt out once they have done 3 or 5 verifications each year?
Then they are auto enrolled back in at the next calendar year.
Could be an option

@nickyhavey,
Also a fine idea.
