I don't know about flagging necessarily; it seems a natural thing to have a downvote that correlates to upvotes. That said, there should be by now some clearly established standards for good flagging and abusive flagging. We're decentralized, so there isn't going to be Steemit, Inc. bearing down on us to wag a finger or slap someone's wrists. However, those of us seeing this should speak up loudly and vociferously to indicate just how wrong someone is for doing this.

You can have clearly established standards without a centralized system. Case in point, common law. I'm talking about using social pressure to discourage individuals from blatantly abusing the downvote function.

Bots cannot be written out of the code. Their existence could be made a tiny bit more difficult, but they are bound to exist. And no flags would mean no option to deal with abuse. And a decentralized system needs that.

Pointing out the problems with specific solutions suggested is not an opinion on the original problems. I said that your no bots sentiment is unrealistic and that your no flags suggestion would create more serious problems than the current ones. I did not express an opinion on the problem and I didn't even criticize complaining about it.
