I've been away from Steemit for a while now, but I agree, downvote is stupid. If you don't like a post, just move on to something you like, no need to downvote something you are not interested in. This just leads to more bullying on the platform. It even looks like it was just created as a weapon for someone to use their massive SP against other person they don't like. Although I can see how it can be used against people that bought their way to the trending page.
Steem has the best platform to get people to use this coin, not to mention most coins don't even have a platform to work with, just dreams in the air and talks about "mass adoption".
Instead of working on useless features like the downvote, that just cause war among the community, people should be working on taking projects like Steepshot, Esteem, Musing, Dtube, Dsound etc, one step further. Promotion of these is key in getting people to adopt Steem. The concept of this site blows their "notblockchain" counterparts completly out of the water, yet few people using them. Once Facebook/instagram, Google, Amazon create their own blockchains, it gets much harder to get people to start using Steemit and its "sons" . Making registration simpler and easier would also be a major thing.
Seriously which other blockhain out there has a platform like this one?Or the others I mentioned?? This is a treasure and its slowly being buried. My two rusty satoshis on this matter.

You really have a flawed grasp of society. War may be the most fundamental cause of eusociality in H. sapiens. It's anything but useless. In terms of profit, war is probably the most profitable function of government, provably the largest industry in financial terms today, and surpassing agriculture sometime in prehistory.
Consider that flags return VP to the rewards pool, and further that the most substantial stakes on the platform extract ~90% of rewards +/- 10%, and you will see the financial potential of flags and flagwars to increase the ROI of the most substantial stakes in Steem.
