Very good point being made about Hive.

Likewise, something that some of us have almost given up on yelling about is the responsibilities of each and every website (UI) to have clearly defined T&C's.

Every "website" out there that is hooked up to the chain, is an independent entity, owned by an independent business.

They need to worry about their website and the T&C's of that website & stop ordering everyone on Hive how to utilize their stake.

Likewise, those people with stake need to start understanding that each website has its customers/user base.

What is acceptable on one site, like for example a microblogging site may not be acceptable on a full on blogging site. What is acceptable on a site for musicians may not be acceptable on a site for homesteaders.

This then comes down to the use or lack of use, of the communities feature.

The communities feature should be the only place where Upvoting and Downvoting is possible.
This way, a person who dislikes one niche can't cause damage to those who like another niche and there is no abuse of peoples voting power for bullying others.

Again, this is something that is said imo, just another voice from the masses.

However, without sharing thoughts on issues as important as this one, how can we ever have discussions that lead to constructive conclusions!
