I will provide further explanation.
I appreciate that!
I have discussed with mangowambo as well and he doesn't have any problem with it.
Just lets be honest. He knows very well that expressing his anger could lead to further problems for him as a blogger in future. I don't say you would downvote him for that, but there is the possibility of it, which already can cause users to be very careful of what they are writing.
I DV'ed the proposal at 100% to discourage spamming of proposals.
I fear the effect is that nearly nobody (who cares the least about his HIVE reputation) is still daring to put a proposal because nobody can guess in advance what HIVE whales like you might think about their ideas.
As you are here I would like to tell you that actually I rather often agree with your point of views (not always but more often than you might think). I see the problem not in what you say and do but how you do it:
I suspect you are reluctant to admit that your statements often contain more than just a pinch of arrogance. Why not replace it by kindness and a more communicative approach in some cases? :)
(Not that I would consider myself perfect - not at all ...)
Oh Adriana? That's a spammer.
In my eyes her posts are too good to call her a spammer, but actually I partly understand the downvotes. On the other hand this exact post was not bad at all. My approach would have been to at first give her a friendly hint to interact more with the community, and only after that wouldn't help I would consider other measures.
For example when she asked for the reason of the flags I would have given a friendlier answer than @galenkp (oh no: I am triggering the whole community now) by giving her a chance to change her behaviour. Actually she is replying to more comments than before after I suggested it to her.
... you don't know a lot of things
Well, even if I am here since 2016 lets say yes: of course I don't know everything (as you - of course - also don't know everything).
If there is more behind that certain account than I know, so it might be, and I happily would admit to be wrong.
I agree with you regarding my arrogance. It’s not just a pinch. It’s often a lot :)
Believe me, I know about that personality trait and I am concerned about it too. However, I often use it to my advantage.
Mangowambo doesn’t blog, so that hive reputation number doesn’t matter to him I told him if he just post any random blog I can provide a single upvote and that rep number will be restored.
Adriana has a really have a very long history only a few anti-abuse people know. I don’t want to discuss it in detail as it take a long time. Just will tell you, it was not a person but a modeling agency :) Please believe me.
PS. The person behind that account is NOT a she, it's a he :) Yes, the lady is real, but she doesn't manage the blog :)
Lol, you show a sense of humour (and also honesty) here, which I didn't expect! Nice to know. :)
If you meet me in real life you will see that I am just like this in person as well. People who met me during Splinterfest will agree. You can ask them. I will look forward to meet you. Hopefully next one will be in Asia.
I am the bald guy in grey jacket. I expect you know the rest of them.
Thanks, nice pics! Yes, I am ready (and happy) to change my opinion about someone if I am wrong.
Yes, Asia would be nice, and if my time allows we might meet each other there.
