The title is 90% of your post, this is true regardless of your media.

Indeed. But good titles isn't the same as clickbait. Clickbait is shitty and lazy work.

Ridged or rigid? I've heard most of those. I downvote/flag by my own principles on anything I happen to find or have brought to my attention. Only wish I could do more to make Steem better

Don't know if it's the right thing to do or not.

But if I would get downvoted for a reason that I don't agree in, I would just go ahead and upvote myself to recover the losses from that downvote. (Meaning REP loss, idc about the steem payout)
(I don't normally vote for myself)

Like IDC what people do with their stake, they are free to downvote me, because that's their decision, and their right to do so.

EDIT: And also I lately I have noticed that steemit community doesn't accept oppinions from small stake holders (Like me).
If I go somewhere and just want to say out my oppinion, I find myself being flagged for a couple of days.
Like jeez, fine I won't tell y'all what I think when I get treated like that.
1 Oppinion less.
[This hasn't happened to me lately, since I have been holding back]

So, if you are dull, don't try to be intelligent or clever, but understand what it is that is making you dull.

I think I will start downvoting when I see the same people upvoting an author all the time. Add that to number 11.

Just following the trend here. 😬😬 Clearly you just downvote according to how you are feeling on that day.

Why do you want to respect other people's feelings and points of view? Are you afraid of having your own feelings hurt, your point of view being changed? If people have opinions that differ from yours, you can find out if they are true only by questioning them, by coming into active contact with them.

Downvoting will do that job!!!

Tried that honestly. How would you describe someone who downvotes content that has been promoted using a bid bot that only accepts steem engine tokens even if it is a 1SBD upvote, but just ignores content from any other bid bot?

Does that sound legit to you if that ever happened to you?

Lol I don’t get why people can’t distance themselves from their content and stop swings downvotes as a personal attack on their soul

I use my 2 daily DVs all the time now and people will ask me why I DV even when they grossly bid botting like are you a simpleton of some sort or did you really think reward farming was going to last?

Already seeing some of them stop posting and powering down lol! Long live the Down vote

I was told the otherday to use honey instead of vinegar when downvoting and criticizing poor behavior on the blockchain (people were encouraged to resteem and comment a bid bot abused token shill for 1 steem) because that's why Americans voted Trump.
Now I am curious who is the Trump of Steem?

Some would argue that we have Trump as president right now because people got sick of being told what they should think and feel. Honey works better than vinegar...

He was upset that I said people who resteem the spammy bidbot abuse crypto shill for 1 steem should be ashamed. He said I actually encouraged him to do it because I said it is shameful.

I haven't replied, but feel free to do or suggest.

What an a*hole. As if you'd need his support to stand your ground.

That's a sure sign of someone who could be trolling. Can't stop everyone from behaving badly. However, I'm sure a few people saw the top comments were all controversial and decided they better pass, not to mention the number of downvotes received.

Steem will not get any better with his attitude. Also, if we treat bad behavior with honey (we tried for 3 years), it doesn't exactly lead to a good outcome.

My favourite was when someone insulted me for downvoting them, then said English wasn't his first language. Apparently he had no idea how offensive it was to tell someone to have intercourse with their mother, cat and themselves because yeah, different culture.

Shame on you:

You are blind that you didnot read my other lines only presenting the English Language one.

Shame on you:

You didn’t reply my comment. You have no words to reply. And evacuating everywhere (here also).
Because you are not in that culture. You don't know how to behvae nicely. This indicates how you grown up, and what type of society you you are living now.

You are just like a chemically imabalanced or mad person, who is thinking that, you did harm to me, and I won't say anything. You first downvoted my post, without my fault. Could you remembet that? What would I do now? Will I kiss you? So, I took my action. And you are always trying to make valid your action by showing a screenshot without thinking that, you had first done that offence and madly saying that it's your right. How it can be your right?

The screenshot you are presenting everywhere, can you show me what was my fault before of my those angry words? If you had any problem with actifit, you should contact with the COO of the company. But, what was my fault? Can you show?

I know, you will also drag that screenshot here also to legitimate your activity. But, remember that, that my anger words was after dpwnvoting my each and every posts. Not only you, but few of your friends also down voted my posts. Before showing that screen shot, tell my what was my fault? Why you downvoted all of my posts?

But you are a very special case indeed, now that you finally like the way the explore page looks, for the price of open warfare all across the blog... even this very post is being downvoted tremendously...

What would be your honest bet, STEEM hitting 0.01$ or hitting 1.00$ next?

No need to answer,... I just wanted to gift you this very special thought.

I'd bet on 1.00$ Jan/Feb/March 2020, but before that... we could keep dropping for a little while longer maybe. Coinmarketcap showed me earlier that some STEEM (around 1.000,00€ in volume) was sold for 0.07€ today.
