I would assume they changed their opinion - too bad it had to come this far for them to realize how important they are.
I have been attacked personally and with retaliation flags, also by members of the Korean community, for downvoting farmers for years. Now the tide has turned. I couldn't care less about my rewards here, so keep them coming guys :)

The minute you put the blame on someone else you’ve switch things from

That is the inevitable human response. We’re reluctant to believe that
great discoveries are in the air. We want to believe that great
discoveries are in our heads—and to each party in the multiple the

who fell asleep.
...and the little bear fell asleep;
...and the little frog fell asleep;
...and the child fell asleep.

There are two ways of constructing a software design; one way is to make
it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way

다운보팅을 없애야 한다는 주장도 많이들 있습니다. 그런 분들께서는 굳이 이런데에 에너지 낭비, 시간 낭비 할 필요 없다는 말씀도 해주시는 것 같습니다
사실 저도 아예 시스템적으로 스팸들을 효과적으로 걸러낼 수 있는 메커니즘 대안이 있다면 다운보팅 자체가 없어져도 된다는 생각도 듭니다. 클레이옵님께 이런 저런 조언들 좀 구해보고 싶네요^^
