RE: The reality of self-voting and Steemit.
@themarkymark I believe that since the platform allows it, one can upvote themselves all they want. However, with great power comes great responsibility so if a powerful account uses their own power to upvote their useless comments, other powerful users may flag those overvalued posts and bring balance. Everything mentioned is my humble opinion.
Completely agree, the problem when this balance is brought, the tears and rage come out. People feel they are being attacked and call on others to help them 'fight back' and it never ends well.
I see you, but if a user has read the terms of service they already know that one can flag content just because they disagree with its payout value. Nothing personal and nothing to do with hostile behaviour whatsoever. We just need to grow up as individual users and treat the matter with maturity and look at this from a community point of view.
You can hammer that point in until the end of our days, and some people refuse to accept it.
