How can I help? Sorry, I'm not that far into STEEM. Could you explain what flagging is and how exactly it affects you?

    Flagging is the opposite of upvoting. It's essentially a downvote. Downvotes strip your rewards. So if you make 1 potato, someone who's upvote is worth 1 potato can come take your potato away. Flagging also affects your reputation.

    It's designed to punish abusers and plagiarists. This guy is abusing his power by flagging / downvoting innocent people
