The conspiracy of downvoters


Hi Steemian, how are you? Hopefully always healthy and creative work.
Since HF 21/22 Downvote on this platform is more widespread. The provision of free downvote pools that do not reduce curation has caused many downvote players to continue trailing their target accounts.
In fact, the purpose of a good downvote pool is to return the reward to the reward pool for posts that commit plagiarism, spam or cheat. However, there is the fact that many downvotes are performed without consideration of good intentions. This makes downvote a battlefield in Steem. Maybe for large accounts with more experience downvote is understood as something normal. but not so on the new Steemian. The newbies who hope that many can learn and earn can be scared if they get downvoted. The impact, if the new account is down and do not understand what his mistakes, of course he will make himself inferior and even avoid then leaving Steem.

Conspiracy of downvoters?


Has your post ever been downvoted by another account, that you have never even been in touch with?
Have you ever seriously looked at who the downvoter your posts?
Several times I was downvoted by accounts that I did not know and were not related to. In my last post I Like After Tea
There was two downvotes that I got. Here is the scrrenshoot.

I am curious about these downers and then I see their account. When I open and look at transactions in my Wallet, I remember something interesting. Both of these accounts transfer Steem to the account that used to downvote me a lot.

Downvoters sometimes don't see their downvote as returning rewards to the reward pool. At least we can see the downstream related accounts.
In the case that I experienced, I see it from several things.
1. Collusion
The downvoters work together to launch attacks blindly and out of hatred. They did not give a reason why a post was given a down vote.

2. Multiple accounts.
It could be that the accounts used are accounts created by the same person. because I saw when the transfer was made. When you get a transfer from another account, the same recipient account is directly transferred.

3. Mastering another account.
If this happens then it can set a bad precedent on this platform. Hopefully this will not happen as I thought.

Beyond that, I prefer to down vote as a last resort. We can give advice, suggestions and warnings so that if you know there are posts that are not good. we do it for the growth of accounts at Steem.
I still remember when @xpilar gave advice so that we don't just downvote. And I believe we do downvote for something better. That also becomes a last resort if the warnings we have given are ignored.
I hope that the downvoter will do it wiser, so Steem will be the best way and get a lot of sympathy and users.
Thus a bit of my writing, hopefully useful.

Thank you for reading my post. I hope you enjoy it

Konspirasi para downvoter


Hai Steemian, bagaimana kabarnya? Semoga selalu sehat dan kreatif berkarya.
Sejak HF 21/22 Downvote pada platform ini makin marak. Penyediaan downvote pool gratis yang tidak mengurangi kurasi membuat banyak pelaku downvote yang terus membuntuti akun sasaran.
Padahal, maskud baik dari downvote pool adalah untuk mengembalikan reward ke reward pool bagi posting yang melakukan plagiarisme, spam atau curang. namun, ada kenyataannya downvote banyak dilakukan tanpa pertimbangan maksud baik. Ini menjadikan downvote sebagai ajang peperangan di Steem. Mungkin bagi akun besar dengan pemnglaman lebih banyak downvote dipahamai sebagai sesuatu yang biasa. namun tidak demikina pada Steemian baru. Para newbies yang berharap banyak bisa learn and earn bisa ketakutan jika mendapat downvote. Dampaknya, jika yang didownvote akun baru dan tak paham apa kesalahannya, tentu aan membuat dirinya jadi minder dan bahkan menghindar lalu meninggalkan Steem.

konspirasi para pendowvote


Pernahkan posting anda di downvote oleh akun lain, yang bahkan anda tak pernah berhubungan?
Pernahkah anda secara serius melihat siapa para pendownvote postingan anda?
Beberapa kali saya di downvote oleh akun yang saya tidak tahu dan tidak berhubungan. Pada posting terakhir saya I Like After Tea
Ada dua downvote yang saya dapatkan. Berikut ini scrrenshootnya.

Saya penasaran dengan para downvoter ini lalu saya coa lihat akun mereka. Saat saya buka lalu lihat transaksi di Wallet saya jadi ingat ada hal yang menarik. Kedua akun ini mentransfer Steem ke akun yang dulu sering mendownvote saya.

Para pelaku downvote kadang tidak melihat downvote yang mereka lakukan sebagai mengembalikan reward ke kolam reward. Setidaknya kita bisa melihat akun downvoter yang saling terkait.
Pada kasus yang saya alami, saya melihatnya dari beberpa hal.

  1. Persekongkolan
    Para downvoter bekerja sama untuk melancarkan serangan dengan membabi buta dan atas kebencian semata. Mereka tidak memberikan alasan mengapa sebuah posting diberikan downvote.

  2. Akun ganda.
    Bisa jadi akun-akun yang digunakan merupakan akun yang dibuat oleh satu orang yang sama. karena saya melihat pada waktu transfer yang dilakukan. Saat mendapat transfer dari akun lain langsung ditransfer akun penerima yang sama.

  3. Menguasai akun lain.
    Jika ini terjadi maka bisa menjadi preseden buruk di platform ini. Semoga sajayang terjadi bukan seperti yang saya pikirkan.

Diluar itu semua saya lebis suka downvote sebagai pilihan terakhir. Kita bisa memberikan nasihat, saran dan peringatan agar jika mengetahui ada posting yang kurang baik. itu kita lakukan demi pertumbuhan akun di Steem.
Saya masih ingat saat @xpilar memberi nasihat agar kita tidak sembarang melakukan downvote. Dan saya percaya downvote kita lakukan untuk sesuatu yang lebih baik. Itu pun menjadi jalan terakhir jika peringatan sudah kita berikan tidak dihiraukan.
Saya berharap para downvoter akan melakukan dengan lebih bijak, sehingga Steem akan jadi sebuah jalan yang terbaik dan mendapat banyak simpati serta pengguna.
Demikian seelumit tulisan saya, semoga bermanfaat.

Terima kasih telah membaca postingan saya. Saya berharap anda menikmatinya

Hey @rokhani, here is a little bit of BEER for you. Enjoy it!

I will enjoy it
thank you

Well, people can do whatever they want. We can't possibly stop them from downvoting us. I've been followed for downvote now 😂 all I care is, need to find enough upvoter. Imagine you spent an afternoon watching the most informative video clip at YouTube, and you realized there's few thumbdown there. Have you thought of, why is this video deserve thumb down? It just happen to be that way. There are people like to do things the opposite way.

Yes you are right. We must more alert to get upvoter than think about downvoter.
