RE: The system encourages spam, and discourages the fighting of spam.
I somewhat agree, as to not being rewarded for downflagging in the short run, but doesn't contributing to the quality of the posting (which downflagging is) eventually create a more valuable platform, thus eventually benefitting you through a higher steemvalue? (far off compared to steem and SD in your count 24 hours later I know, but still)
Yea, it's like brushing your teeth. In the short run, it's a pain, you have to buy tooth paste, tooth brushes, floss, and spend some time on it every day. But in the long run, you'll have healthy teeth.
It would be nice if the system could reward good behaviors in the short term.
