RE: All Vouchers Gone!
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Why are you auto-downvoting perfectly good quality posts of @frot ?
You are pushing people away from Hive which is hurting all our investment.

I'm not sure when these downvotes started being issued, but HIVE is up almost 100% since a low 7 weeks ago.
They started in July 2021.
The 15th June actually, 52 in total. HIVE was 36c on the 15th, I'm not sure how downvotes to this account are affecting our investment.
Short term market movements are irrelevant.
The long term value of a network, including a blockchain, is based its number of active users.
98% of Hive transactions and active users are Splinterlands players.
The Hive blogging platform does not have enough users to be pushing people away.
Splinterlands has already moved from the Steem blockchain to the Hive blockchain and could move again.
If you know anything about the ideological views of the Splinterlands founders you will know that they are not big on censorship or suppression of alternative views.
This says it all really. Hive is moving on from a blogging platform - it's not content, upvoted or downvoted, that will spotlight the blockchain.
Could, but unlikely as Hive is a good match for this game. The move from Steem was a reluctant one if I remember correctly.
I've met them both, although the topic was neither content or downvotes.
While we are all obviously very happy about Splinterlands success and the wealth it has brought, it is important to not get carried away or think that the blogging aspect of Hive is not an important, core part of the ecosystem.
Hive is a suitable chain for Splinterlands, but so are other chains based on it.
Splinterlands could get so big it may need to run forks of Hive just to cope with the growth. The SPS token provides ways to create new decentralised chains with token ownership based on SPS holdings.
Hive needs to continue to attract new users to its core, blogging function and show growth in this area to survive long term. Otherwise it will become completely dependent on Splinterlands and thus vulnerable.
I see dangerous hubris in the comments about how well the Hive price is doing and why should we care about people leaving Hive because their posts have been downvoted to zero because a whale doesn't like them.
Hive needs to convert its new Splinterlands sourced users to regular bloggers, not scare people away.
This is what is in the long term interests of everyone with a significant Hive stake.
Exactly. Frot is a spam artist and a thief. A dead weight on the system. He is on powerdown on all his accounts. He wants to go to blurt. I am just making his job easier. Don’t worry about him.
You are making serious personal defamatory accusations here.
Please provide evidence that they are true.
His powerdowns and move to Blurt appear to be the RESULT of your auto downvote.
If you think that forcing people you don't like off Hive and onto Blurt is a good thing for Hive then understand that many other good people on Hive are watching what is happening and are starting to look at Blurt and other platforms.
If I have to go to Blurt to see first hand testimony of protests in New Zealand because you have forced @frot and others off Hive then I will fire up my neglected account there and start posting on both platforms.
I personally think its is important to have downvotes as well as upvotes but auto downvotes are an abuse of the system.
Are you representing frot?
Otherwise this is where I end my discussion on this matter.
No I'm not representing @frot.
I don't like bullying behaviour and I don't like legitimate content being forced off Hive.
All my downvotes are manual.
Also, I am sorry @apshamilton ….
You call this a quality post?
https://peakd.com/pob/@frot/helping-out-a-friend-on
I call it a personal attack.
I agree that the post you linked to above is a personal attack.
However this post https://peakd.com/proofofbrain/@frot/anti-vaxer-march-in-wellington is a quality post with original content informing people what is going on in NZ.
This is where I have a problem with auto downvoting.
Please don’t worry about him. He is unwinding and leaving hive for a while. Just let him go. No loss.
By the way your investment in hive is doing very well. Hive is trading near all-time-high.
Frot have been farming and funneling hive out for many months. I have a couple of developers looking into his accounts as everything is public
Below is all the funds going out of grot.
Ash can do more hive sql query for you if you are interested
I am not sure what you mean by farming or what is wrong with someone moving out their Hive.
If a post is plagarised, spam or personal abuse downvotes are appropriate.
However downvoting perfectly OK content on autodownvote of an account is not OK.
Also these withdrawal transactions appear to be the RESULT of all his posts being nuked to zero by your auto downvote.
If you have a problem with particular content then downvote it and explain why in a comment.
But don't auto downvote an account that contains at least some legitimate content.
This is contrary to the purpose of content curation (to promote good content and demote bad content) and is itself a personal attack.
I rest my case with the chart above. Many thanks for your engagement.
By the way, this post of mine is a post about Splinterlands. I hope you are enjoying the game.
This is relevant to Splinterlands - see my response to @abh12345 above.
