It makes sense to downvote spammers/plagiarists/abusers, but the notion of an "overrewarded post" is plain stupid and ridiculous. What is an overrewarded post? Who set the bar? Is there a consensus on the limit? Was it a thing when acidyo and friends were reaping hundreds of STEEM/HIVE for their own daily shitposts, upvoted by automated whale bots? Do you remember that berniesanders with his daily shitposts (literally, posting dick and poo picks) milking $500-$600 each? Did acidyo, themarkymark, smooth, blocktrades, and other super whales downvote him? Nooooooo, not a single one of them lifted a finger or wanted to confront the #1 abuser. On one hand I totally disagreed with bernie's posts, and even flagged many of them, but on the other hand he intentionally demonstrated how broken this system is. The whales readily flex their muscles against the little man for making an extra buck. I guess the rules don't apply to them, the old adage remains true: do what I say, don't do what I do. So, you know what I think about the self-righteous whales, to put it mildly, they can go make love to themselves.
