First thing -- I do not think this is a good idea. One post, one monk, one vote.
<p>
But suppose we really did want to implement this vote-buying scheme in the Monastery ....
<p>
Buying additional down-votes at
<blockquote>"5 XP per downvote to do it. 10 even"</blockquote>
is selling them way too cheaply. Doubling down on a Node is a serious matter and should require serious thought.
<p>
Serious matters require serious consequences.
<p>
Do I feel so strongly about the worthlessness of this Node that I really want to double my down-vote? Am I also willing to accept the consequences to my own XP?
<p>
So, let's make the consequence fit the crime. Take my XP at the start of the day. Price each additional down-vote at 1% of that. So long as my XP is non-negative, I can have an additional down-vote.
<p>
If you feel so strongly about the worthlessness of a Node, you should be willing to pay for it.
