RE: The Steemit Bar is Getting an Upgrade & Moving to Discord! (Instructions & Tutorial inside)

in #discord8 years ago (edited)

It is perceived that way by a number of people, who commented to me about this particular post which was the only reason I'm here at all (I didn't see the post myself). I've never heard of the steemit bar channel before nor has anyone discussed it with me, so if it were clear this post is about moving the bar channel, I'd never know about it.

What I have seen personally is people proposing such a migration on steemit.chat channels. The perception or the suggestion may be incorrect or not reflect the views or intent of the organizers, but it still exists.

They did tell their friends about the improved service on rocket chat and invited them over but it's not like it's being spammed or sharing that type of info is out of line.

This is specifically incorrect. It has been perceived as spam (again, even if not intended) and complaints have been made to the moderators. I believe at least one person was asked by moderators to stop.

Let's all work together, to bring people to SteemIt. (Edited)

"people proposing such a migration on steemit.chat channels"

I haven't seen that but I'll take your word for it. To me both of these platforms are merely stepping stones until Steemit is able to offer these features themselves. I see no issue with advertising either here in a post and it is certainly nothing flag worthy.

Your flags go a long way and get noticed. I only learned of this post because you flagged it. You might want to consider the Streisand effect when you flag in the future.

A comment without a flag probably would have gone over a lot smoooother ;)

I have no problem with this post getting more visibility, as long as people aren't being misled as they clearly were earlier (in bringing it to my attention). I'm all for promoting social channels in the wider Steem ecosystem as it sounds like the Steemit bar is, as well as Steemspeak.

Believe me I'm well aware of the Streisand effect and there have been unambiguously abusive posts that I watched instead of flagging to make sure they simply stayed unnoticed by almost everyone.

Agree mostly. Real time chat may never be on the blockchain, and steemit.chat using the rocketchat software (bad as it is) is the official platform for now. Hopefully that will change to something better.

Well I see people creating their own steemits and calling it whatever they may want to call it as long is it is synced with the blockchain. I could be way off here but I feel as if somebody goes and starts their very own blockchain with steemit right here, well they would have to be blind. lolz

Dude - even @ned and @blocktrades are at Discord. You are welcome too @smooth but you must have a much better attitude then your normal "easily offended" attitude if you gonna hang with the community on discord. https://discord.gg/dhnEx - Don´t attack this woman's Steemit Bar please.

LOL, I have nothing against the bar. I'm sure the bar is great, and I may very well join your Discord server too.

I do, however, think that your retaliatory flag on my comment was inappropriate. There was nothing abusive or harmful about the comment. Would it be better if I just flagged and did not comment?

First drink is on the house @smooth :) Looking forward to see you there, and to have you on the Radio one of these days.

Flag removed :)
