Well as a stakeholder I think it is extremely important we have the ability to fight abuse. We just have to teach people it is normal to receive flags. If we have large stakeholders abusing their power that is a different issue which has nothing to do with the UI design.

The same tool that can fight abuse can lead to abuse. In my time using Steem I've received several dollars in down votes for expressing unpopular opinions. Down votes are supposed to counter abuse. Despite having this feature, certain individuals earn the largest shares of the rewards pool by making several posts a day containing absolutely zero text. Why do I not mention them by name? I'm concerned about getting singled out by their followers, as I have been in the past. Right now, the rich abuse the system with impunity because they can down vote you harder than you can down vote them. Posted using [Partiko Android](https://partiko.app/referral/samuel-swinton)

Changing the blockchain rules is not being discussed. We are discussing how to best communicate how the blockchain works via an Interface.

Alright then. The best idea is to remove it entirely from the UI. It's not like steemit hasn't done that before. Posted using [Partiko Android](https://partiko.app/referral/samuel-swinton)

Youre mixing up abuse and opinion which is ecactly the problem this change will exacerbate. Posted using [Partiko Android](https://partiko.app/referral/nathen007)
