RE: Talking to anyone about Hive: The value of onboards
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
It's not so much a personal issue with me. More that I see the damage that it does to the platform.
But of course, the only way to fix it is from the inside.
My biggest concern is that we still seem to have a "Wild West Frontier" attitude. That seems to stem from the need to be decentralised. But surely we can recognise that:
- Down voting for personal reasons must be limited to the total of up votes that have been given to the author in the past. I.e. "I have supported you in the past. But because of this post, I'm withdrawing (some of) that support"
- Down voting for the sake of the platform should be a community responsibility. Or, for non-community posts, the responsibility of the publisher. I.e. the frontend. Because self-appointed censorship is evil.

I suspect people want the actual platform to stay neutral. How do you judge the reasons for a downvote? As it is DVs are a tiny percentage of total votes, but then they get concentrated on a few people. I don't have influence on anyone to change that, just the same witness votes as anyone else.
