It is kind of like a downvote, and remove rewards from the post/comment. So before the payout anyone can spend their Voting Power to reduce the reward of posts or comments, effectively taking away their earned reward. Note that this only works before payout. Most people don't really use flag at all, but some do, especially when there is drama involved.
You will see next to the comments on the top right a little flag icon. It subtracts the same value as your upvote would. If someone of a higher reputation flags you it also affects your reputation score.
