Getting a dislike on facebook or youtube is whatever, getting a dislike on here having rewards removed can be very unnerving.

Dopamine hits are what attract people to something typically, if a bunch of people are being downvoted they aren't going to want to be here, whether the downvote is justified or not. It's a psychological issue that doesn't build confidence in the way this system is setup.

I still think limiting posts to a maximum of 50 USD would be a great start. There's almost no reason why any post should make more than that.
