Yes, it's sad to see all these personal vendettas being carried out with flagging and bots...

But that's a problem with the game rules and not a problem with flagging as a tool. There are many legitimate uses for a "downvote"!

The problem in these quarrels lies in 2 aspects (imho):

power distribution and the idea of a trickle down economy
the way the site steemit.com handles reputation and post visibility

those are systemic issues that need to be discussed.

But that's nothing @sherlockholmes will pay much attention to, I am looking for genuine scammers and cheaters!

replacing flags with just "mute" will save everyone from vendettas =)
Just think about it
spam will still remain invisible after muting
no user can be downvoted till zero
there's already system of stimulation running, what's the point of penalty system? if user gets no upvotes, any spammer will eventually stop, am I right?
Spam in long-term, has only one point - to earn. In short term - just to annoy someone.
