You could burn the rewards instead, then curators still get curation rewards for upvoting you. However, since ~30 people still voted on this post anyway, I think those are autovotes that don't read but

If we agreed on everything that would mean one of us is a liar... LOL It would also mean neither of us would learn anything from the other. I have just finished an extensive reply above, and I hope you

"I have no idea why when we talk about downvotes you get so unhappy with me." I do not mean to cause you to feel that way. It isn't how I feel. I do not judge you for having different views than

LOL lucylin was hilarious. Didn't he just move to Blurt? I thought he advertised it a couple times, before he quit coming back. I am a bit slow, which is why I was with my ex for 22 years, instead of 22

"...talking about downvotes kind of sucks..." People take their money real personal. I try not to, because it's better for me not to, but that's the best I can do with the subject. It's still

"...votes from the ninjamine..." Sure. Once when I was arguing with them you don't name, in the midst of being flagged mercilessly for months, Dan appeared out of nowhere (I think he'd left the

Folks DV for high KE, and both of them say 'It's my stake. I can do what I want.' BTW, HF28 has screwed me hard. A week ago I blew my VP following a long conversation and upvoting points I agree with,

"Would it still be upvote based?" Executive summary: Yes. Long, convoluted rant in answer: Do you only vote because you get curation rewards? I am willing to bet that most people don't much consider

We need real a real finance community rather than the shilling shit show that's Leo! ☝️

it's been a while since I've seen an egregious use of force. There's a lot of hypocrisy going around still, but I'll agree to disagree.

"• We have 1 Reward Pool that is impacted by downvotes aka HIVE Hardcore. "• We have 1 "small" Reward Pool that does not get impacted by downvotes aka HIVE Lite. "• The downvote

I think this is why the stab schedule has been dramatically reduced, to avoid tripping the wire that is today taught and tense.

No. A brave man well knows fear, and does what is right. Fools know no fear and yield to whatever urges strike them. Both may speak out, or neither may. Some pick their battles to maximize their impact,

I continue to hope for your prosperity and safety. It is certainly a precarious time, but for few as much as Cuba. Thanks!

I can affirm that even when I did give him reason to DV me, he refrained and simply pointed out the injury I had done him. He hasn't ever DV'd me despite my rather strident discussion that strayed into
