Hmmm
I don't think it's nice to downvote because of the reasons stated above.
Everyone should be entitled to his/her own opinion.
We can enforce/impose our ideology or believe on everyone in the community.
Things won't work or move that way.
There won't be unity/togetherness.
Things I believe that would make a community increase is;
When we share common goals
When we have Freedom of expression.
Attend to each member concerns with sensitivity
Have a clear policies and obligations which I believe is put in place
Fairness, don't just downvote base on individual differences
Further interaction among ourselves.
RE: Hive marketing. Being downvoted by @spaminator for expressing my emotions or for being vegetarian??? Wtf???
