RE: Why I Avoid "HF21 Flagging" So Far.
And, it could ultimately cost me even more in the long haul, due to potential retaliation flags from authors I have flagged.
And because of this no big account that probably does deserve to be flagged ever will be in any sort of meaningful capacity.
My exact thoughts. It's easy to go after smaller accounts, that doesn't hurt the wallets as much... And the funny thing is, that fulltimegeek amongst only a handful of other people flagged people before HF21, and they sacrificed their own rewards by doing that...
Now, when people suddenly have free downvotes, people are more interested to "change" things. Honestly speaking, free downvotes feels like the perfect thing to add along with the reward changes, as larger accounts will have even more to win.
Not saying it's the reason for these two things to come in at the same time though... But it feels pretty logical to me.
