Hey, @vimukthi.
You and I seem to align quite a bit on things, so I'm interested in knowing where we differ and why.
So, I'm wondering about flag wars, downvoting and how we treat each other. The rest I'm in total agreement that an investor is going to look at those things.
Would they get into the details of the activity on the social side, or have it persuade them not to invest, if the rest of your list is looking good? I suppose it would compound things if the rest weren't doing well.
I don't think the flag wars will be the first thin an investor would be thinking of. It will act as a secondary reason keeping them from investing more or simply demotivate those who were on the fence regarding investing into STEEM.
Some investors may post once in a while (at least comment) or maybe they will have friends or people who they are fan of becoming casualties of toxic behavior. If they see good authors leave or post less due to these downvoting related toxicity, the investors will hold STEEM at a lower valuation.
I do believe that SMTs and reducing free downvotes can help the situation massively.
