Well now I'm afraid to play games like this one, because 1) I want minnows to have bandwidth or they will lose interest in the platform, and 2) If I piss off a Witness, I might as well go back to Farcebook rather than sit here terrified they will flag my posts into oblivion.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I was flagged for three months straight by a massive whale (and in the last 12 hours before payout so further upvotes wouldn't help). I didn't let it get me "terrified." If you're too emotionally wrapped up in the votes here, that may not be healthy. It's not witnesses that go around flagging stuff you have to be concerned with. It's all about Steem Power stake. It's mostly just whales and usually it's to prevent spam, abuse, etc. Sometimes it's just irrational and I get pretty frustrated at that also.
As to your participating in contests where you're just spamming account names to increase your chance of winning, think about how you'd feel if you got all those notifications. See my reputation post I linked to in my reply for more on that.
I actually joined this game when I saw someone else tagged me. If the game itself hadn't interested me, I would have ignored it. Pretty simple.
If you're going to fixate on a poor choice of words to summarily evaluate my emotional state, not only are you being pretty fucking presumptuous ('cause you don't know me), it seems contrary to growing this platform. What other investment do I have in it, after one week?
It's probably not Witnesses, but you are human so I can't dismiss the possibility.
You've used words like "terrified" and "being crushed." Reading the words you're using communicates an emotional state. If that state is not accurate and you don't like how it displays your actual mental state, then please use different, more accurate words instead of calling someone "fucking presumptuous" who is simply reading the words used and interpreting them.
Way to avoid any actual point I addressed.
I didn't avoid anything. I appreciate your perspective on why the game is valuable to you and why you participated. If no one was participating, it wouldn't even be worth talking about.
I like this actually. @ancapbarbie @lukestokes people been real, because they ARE, not afraid of a downvote or flag because they potentially offended someone, expressing ones view without fear or favour, this is what its about, REALLY, not about 'pleasing' everyone for the sake of an upvote, be real and true to yourself and everyone else, and you two are.. Much RESPECT and love, thank you both. Cheer$;)
