RE: Steemit Feature Request: We need to have a "Dislike" button separate from "Flags" for better online interactions (According to Game design Wisdom)
That and get rid of flags altogether, methinks :)

Getting rid of flags would mean we can't effectively combat scams, fraud, plagiarism etc. We could use some distributed consensus to get rid of these problems without flags. But that would be too inefficient. The easy way is to say flags are reserved for NAP violations and flagging without a breach of NAP is a Flagging abuse.
There might be some complex solutions for this problem. I'm not a dev and "Dislike" button is a step in the right direction. Personally I think getting rid of flags can be a dangerous thing without involving some AI/Machine learning and other complicated tech+ distributed consensus to fight real abuse.
