@stellabelle great and very informative post. I resteemed it.
Dear I am having an issue with two accounts that are viciously downvoting my posts and comments. bloom and ronahi. I tagged you in my most recently post and one a post written by ronahi that was filled with insults, slurs, and allegations against me. Is there anyone that holds these accounts accountable for their malicious behavior? Any advice is appreciated.
you can put the links in steemit abuse linkdrop in Steemit Chat
Have you used Steemit chat before?
Ah okay, yes once when I first joined. I will try that. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out. Thank you!
by the way i don't get notifications, so next time, just send me a dm in steemit chat. Unfortunately, this is one of the weaknesses of this platform, in that anyone can police anything. I can help unhide your comments, as long as you tell me what's going on. I am not the police though, as this community is self-policed. Steemit abuse channel may or may not decide to take actions as they usually don't get involved with such content matters.
I posted it in #steemitabuse in the chat.. but there doesn't seem to be anyone there. bloom and ronahi disagree with my views so they are ganging up on me.. and if I understand correctly they can't just downvote all of my posts and comments without writing a comment and having a third party approve the downvote but maybe that rule doesn't hold water. I am fine with opposing views, my posts and articles attract a lot of different reponses but I do feel like these two accounts are abusing their downvoting privalege.
you have to use Steemit abuse linkdrop.
There is no policing of downvotes...and you need to ask @patrice about this matter as I am not really qualified. There are a number of things we could do, and going forward, upvoting your own comments to prevent them from being hidden and getting help when this occurs is a solution.
