This method would literally make up for the pending author rewards lost from the downvote. Maybe don't be so oversensitive to downvotes which causes no one to use them and we end up seeing so much farm and trash getting rewarded.
Maybe don't get into the habit of telling me what to do, Acidyo -- this is two days in a row. I'm not the farm or the trash. You take that out somewhere else.
I asked a random question and your 2nd point literally nullifies the whole idea presented, why would the author feel a pinch if THE IDEA itself presented here makes up for the pinch?
