This is what happened and here's a damn good reasoning why it was necessary for the community to remove the post rewards.
Eventually FUDing and the resulting flags ends up causing no FUD but hey Steem moons.
So that basically means one thing. Stop fooling people on Steemit Jerry.
Additional reading material worth your time.
Remember, reward pool gets paid out no matter what. When you flag bad actors, their share is returned back to the reward pool and gets paid out to everyone else using the platform. Therefore benefitting all the people truly invested into the growth and success of this place.
Please be careful with your witness vote and upvotes to people who are trying to create FUD and scam people just because they didn't get their way. These are some difficult and controversial decisions to make. But if this platform is to succeed or be sustainable over a longer period of time it will need to be done irrespective of the brick bats.
Else, before we know we're all back on Facebook earning nothing for speaking our minds and all the effort put in by everyone from the earliest days of this platform will go wasted. Many have invested their savings into this platform to let FUDsters go scott free.
Someone will have to step in and make some hard choices instead of simply paying lip service. Because this platform and the blockchain is not about what any one person wants. As a community we need to be able to see through the bullshit someone is peddling us and be logical with our choices.
Good luck to us all.

Since I'm kind of new to cryptocurrency, I have little idea of what he really meant indirectly. Well, thanks for the alert @firepower. Thank you

Whenever the blues hit me on the price of steem, it helps to think back to how long it took to get my first cheque from Facecrook. 😎

Thanks for this. FUD is no good. Instead of hating on Steem, people should just invest in it.

Wow! That post has been plummeted to nothing in 4 days! $1200+ to $ 0.00( Maybe minus!). I unfollowed him when he conducted something like a mega Supernatural writing contest. It was in February I think. Even though he guaranteed big upvotes for writing about those rumours(Yes.. is there anyone who has seen a God or 😈 in person?), I didn't participate in it. Infact, I wrote something against it.
Hereafter, he cannot push his posts to trending page as most of the powerful bidbot owners have banned him from their services. But still he continues to be in 31st position among witnesses( Yet, he has the fear. He has changed his bio from 'witness' to something else!) It is sad that people like you are not even there in the top 100 witness list!

Yeah, about that post.... I can't even read it because my browser has a stroke trying to load it due to all the comments. Aside from the post content itself, this is an issue I've been really kind of tired of on this platform. So many comments that the post is essentially not even functional. On a technical level, this shouldn't even be happening. Steemit isn't going to be a contender in the social media world until simple crap like that is taken care of.
