RE: Bernie's dislike for people who don't have standard jobs - A reason to flag people

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

So not a positive upvote to promote what people like or support of certain information getting out, but just popular posts win out because they have the most views? Those that don't have the views get downvoted because the supporters aren't allowed to positively affect what they want to be seen or rewarded?

So those who have the most SP get to decide in a negative way and deny what the others want to support, rather than positively affirming support for the content they do want to support more of. There isn't a positive affirmation to denote competition. Competition and stake influence -- that is often promoted as the basis for Steemit -- is suppressed by those who don't want that content to be promoted, as it's not in the direction they have for Steemit, not in their view as you say. You don't see a problem with that? Just because it's not the content you like, you get to deny the voter support to allocate rewards as per their stake. So then it becomes about a flagging game where the only way to even out supporters of one content flagging down others posts is to do the same...

And that means 1 post in a day or in a week it doesn't matter, all that matters is that it's not the content someone wants on Steemit, so they are justified in flagging/downvoting.

The corruption of our world is unfathomable unfortunately and the cycle of abuse never ends... I have to either know someone or play political games or buy my way up to get noticed...

And so it will be here? That if you don't have the matching SP support from others to counter flags, then those who don't want certain content to be popularized get to downvote as they like...

tldr?

Sorry to jump in here, but I couldn't think of another way to reach you to say THANKS! (from a grateful old man!!!)

I'm not going to read past your first sentence

So not a positive upvote to promote what people like or support of certain information getting out, but just popular posts win out because they have the most views?

When you assume "JUST" you are wrong, I do upvote content that I believe is good for the platform or projects I want to support financially.

I said post globally are about 30x overvalued, there is nothing I can do about that.

Many of your post are about taking away value of SP by wanting to regulate downvotes by your, I believe, fallacious politics.
It seems like, given your reputation, you're not going to go anywhere with that.

I didn't say there was no positive upvoting, the point is that when your promoting the downvote for any reason, and how its fine to do so to take Steemit in the direction you want to with the posts you don't want to be downvoted, that's the issue.

So not a positive upvote to promote what people like

See? I didn't say "no positive upvotes". I said that supporting flagging/downvotes os not a positive upvote, it's about the attitude of how to go about supporting content and giving the others a fair chance as well with their supporters. Otherwise it turns into a flagging game.

Why does the downvote need to come in to guide Steemit into view of what you want it to be? Use the positive affirmation of content, not denying content based on you not liking the content topics.

My posts are about how any of the high SP users who have the most power can step in to decide to do whatever they want, such as suppressing others content or removing rewards that others allocated because they don't like it being rewarded. Meanwhile, other content is fine. If the people who preferred my type of content acted like you seem to suggest and agree with bernie, then they should be downvoting the other types of posts so that their type supported content is promoted more? I already tried to explain this above, but you don't read what I write for some reason, and then make responses based on not reading it.

I think you're reading way too much into it, and it's possible that some people don't like your style of wrtiting. It seems like you could always write the same thing with 1/5 the length.

There is no way I'm going to analyse your post for meaningful content. It seems like it's going nowhere and it's full of typos and grammatically incoherent uses.

they should be downvoting the other types of posts so that their type supported content is promoted more?

Their type supported content is promoted more ????

Maybe assume that curator cannot do a perfect job and that a down-vote is just more efficient than up-voting everything else and maybe that should help you move on with your life.

I've deleted my post. Don't feel safe responding.
