RE: We are Steemians: the thoughts behind Downvotes and the respect to each other !

in #steempress5 years ago

Id be more interested to see comments explaining why we up voted someone. I would think most know why they get down voted.

i.e I up voted this post because i loved the pictures, vote weight was lowered as i didn't necessarily agree with what was written and i'm trying to save my voting manna lol.

Either way point taken. I will think about leaving a comment next time:)

Hi @michealb, thank you for your thoughts and your position to this subject. It is of course nice to know why people upvoted our posts, to tell the truth people upvote more than downvote. It is time comsuming properly read and comment those posts that you like. But as it is we are all busy in our real life. Like me, last 4 days I have had 4 days of 12,5 hours shifts and when I returned home I had only power to eat a bit and just to sleep. Those days I can upvote but physically have no power for comments, but I know that I will make those people happy with my attention.

On other hand downvoting you may completely turn the day of someone into misery, as that person will break his head thinking what he did wrong in order to deserve it. That is why in my opinion it is more important to explain why someone decided to hurt someone rather why make someone happy. Hope it does make sense?
