Hi Rok,
Me personally, I do not like flagging for any reason.
Freedom of choice allows readers to decide.
Newbies like myself don't have the writing skills as great as yours.
I say, If they are not harming you.. Don't harm them.
So what if they are begging for votes and attention... they just want to be part of the group/Steemit community.
I do agree with yah bra that standards should be in place but to lash out in any way towards anyone is not my cup of tea.
I have been on the ATTACKED side of self rightous assholes flagging me here and it is not nice.. I will never flag anyone unless they start flagging me.
Love the picture of the Fist Rose, did you draw that? Great work!
no, snagged the pic from Pinterest.
t'is not a matter 'lashing out,' but using a tool to deter behavior that is inappropriate. free speech isn't a rationalization for outright hostile, disrespectful, integrity-lacking behavior. anti-censorship isn't a rationalization for abusive conduct or spam. we're growing a community here, and codes & standards of conduct and values need to be established. yeah, some people might abuse the flag function - but it's also a tool to help in the process of setting those codes and standards...
Hi bro,
I welcome some kind of change for inappropriate comments/Spamming but I asked lots of people about your post and they said;
"Hi, like your post, keep them coming" or something along like that/ short and not much contribution to the post.
Is Not spam.
I remember reading in your post something about; Author curation is taken by useless comments or something along that line.
Well, I recently found out that YOU want any comments of any kind/ Good or Bad within the first 24 hours of your post that is where the Author makes his rewards.
Everything after that goes to the voters.
For a open platform, I don't like flagging at all.
I think they should just have a block button option.
Don't like what I am posting? don't read it. Comment or Spam that does not go well with the Author; then Block them on that post.
Flagging comes across as censorship while Blocking provides remedy for inappropriate behavior.
You working today? I am coming into Van thought we might meet?
