Noticed something that got under my skin on Steem today. I just wanted to bring it to light.
Maybe I'm off-base. Maybe I'm not but I really gotta get this off my chest. This will not be a canon episode of Flag TV but I'm just using the thumbnail created by @penderis (on Steem ) They also have a YT channel.

I'll be creating a different thumbnail template for the more random loosely flag related streams as I want FlagTV to be reserved for higher production value content that is edited. Anyways, let's roll into whats grinding my gears, shall we?

Hey bro, I can relate to the daily struggle of having to go to work, while raising young children, and then trying to find time for Steemit. I don't know all the nuances and history behind bitbots, downvoting/flagging, and dapps development. I am a relative newcomer, but I do enjoy the content creation part, even if it is not always easy to find time or cultivate ideas for the platform. I just wanted to extend my appreciation for what your doing. Keep up the good work, and remember to take care of your self first and foremost. If someone is being a dick, just don't make time for them. Avoid engaging if at all possible. Take your effort to where it is appreciated.
(I'll admit though, sometimes you just need to vent.. get it off your chest.. just remember to let off the steam and move on.. don't carry it around with you)
Hope your daughters are well. Keep your chin up, things will work out! Cheers!
Thanks, bud.
I just gotta take it day by day. Not sure if I mentioned in the video but the big struggle I am going through as a parent is with my oldest daughter who developmental issues. (We're waiting on the DNA results which is a little nerve-racking)
I just need to take it day by day and remember that Steem is not my entire life and family is my priority. I know at least one person who has suffered mental health issues due to their interactions here.
That imo is a good cue to take a vacation. Also, family should always come first. I gotta check myself sometimes as I have a tendency to get obsessed with my work. If it isn't putting bread on the table, it's just a hobby. That's Steem for me.
As for the venting, I'm good right now but yeah gotta call things as I see them. May get me in some drama sometimes but better than being a coward. Still no responses though on my comments.
Maybe give it some time.

Feeling ignored can be extremely frustrating, especially when it comes to getting our point across. You're right though, you said your piece, hopefully you get a response, some sort of answers or closure...
You did mention about your daughter. I can only imagine how nerve-wracking a situation that must be. I have three boys, youngest is 7 months, and the oldest is 7 years.. he's tends to be the focus of a lot of bullying at school, he's a very sensitive kid and it breaks my heart. Sometimes I wish I could toughen him up somehow, or at least infuse him with a heavy dose of confidence, which, I am discovering, is probably one of the most important things we can do as parents. In any case, we have to be patient, accepting, and unconditional in our love and responsibility to this precious life that we have help create. Stay strong, bro, and take things day by day. Develop a routine. I find that, despite all the cynicism and cattiness that can bubble up on steemit, there is a very constructive and supporting community here if you can find the right people.
Good luck with everything! It'll work out one way or another.
Hey man, great video at 1.5X! I understand your critique of Aggroed's post, but I think it's good momentum. If the objectively garbage posts on trending bid up by bots get eliminated, that's a chunk out of their business model. That momentum can be carried forward to continue the campaign against them, including demanding alternatives. A popular offensive campaign of any size is welcome after all of this pissing into the wind we've been doing lately. It's something that can be expanded upon. Adjusting ideological alignment regarding bidbots is something that will take time to influence from the bottom up, but it can be done.
It could also be that he's thinking of the STEEM price and doesn't want them to all get scared and dump their STEEM at the same time. This is a way of slowly turning up the heat.
Thanks for the nice words. I can appreciate that people like you have put in some serious work in the SFR project community and the tools to make it work. It would be great if some of the big players could show their appreciation too.
Dude, I've been watching your live stream for a bit now. If you are going to be on to something about them not wanting you around doing SFR after the HF, (and I am just being honest here) it may not have anything to do with the HF but more so to do with being out of your league. Maybe someone behind the scenes is trying to tell you something. They probably are aware you have well intentions but you literally have to be a computer genius if you are going to outwit abusers/scammers/spammers...you've just spent the last hour trying to find whatever it is you are looking for that you want to show us that you want to rant about. I'll be hypnotized by your swirling background before that ever happens...though I do have to give you kudo's it's much better than the other video background I seen in the last video I watched, the one where you were sitting on the couch so long looking down your nose started to run...not knowing you well I was like what's up with that he on drugs or something before realizing it was just the position of your head. I didn't make it through that video either. That's because when you make a video or go live you have to have whatever it is you are going to say or present ready to go to grab people's attention. In regards to your set up you've come a million miles, in preparation not so much. If you are planning to outwit the best of them it's better not to make videos or go live without confidence behind you otherwise the bad guys will see your weak points and eat you up. Definitely someone's been looking out for your behind so far.
Also I wasn't planning on streaming today until I saw that questionable stuff.

You may be right but they don't need to beat around the bush if so.
I don't want SFR to die as I believe the concept is sound. We just need to get better with execution.
Video production isn't my main field. I wouldn't necessarily say I am a computer genius but I'm pretty good at figuring things out.
I don't want to pull a DLive on Steem in regard to SFR. I would like to keep it going in a way that serves the good people and thwarts the devices of the bad.
Tbh it would be much less of a headache to migrate to a pristine chain but there is a lot of infrastructure that would be lacking. One of the biggest would be Steemconnect.
There may be hope yet for this chain but yeah I would wish certain people here would be more forthcoming.

You are much more diplomatic than me. Good stuff. I received great fitness reports back when I was in the Corps. Yet; that box that said tact? Never did well with that.
Oversight. Of the movers and shakers on STEEM as well as me! Now that is what I call contributing to our blockchain. Good for you.
Time for me to do some research on my witnesses. Made a mistake. Need to reevaluate how I vote for witnesses. Appreciate your candor, yet I would expect nothing less devil dog.
