THIS is what I'm talking about, djezes christ.
I'm a person on my own thank you very much, I made this account just to reply.
Wanne see my ID, or CPID? Here it is: https://www.gridcoinstats.eu/cpid/77e8b5f5fe415a06ddc0f23d0b612715
Boincstats? https://boincstats.com/en/stats/-1/user/detail/144356/overview (yes, I left the team yesterday)
Google my nick and you'll find out my realname you can facebook aswell if you want (warning: contents may be Dutch (the language).
Is it so much to ask to keep the professionalism higher than this, where even a simple member gets accused of something while he only wants to point out he's sick of the fights in the community and just wants to see everyone get along instead of fighting...
Antwerp? Cool! My parents go there all the time.
My condolences to them :P
When your first post/comment on Steemit EVER is complaining about getting flagged, I guess you don't expect to start some high-quality discussion, do you? Low quality in->low quality out.
My complaint wasn't about getting downvoted. It's about posts that get downvoted because it doesn't comply the taste of bigger names in the community (not mine, if that still isn't clear, and no, this ain't a clone account).
I'm a big lurker, I read almost everything that appears on reddit about gridcoin (at least I try to). I oonly use steem for the gridcoin topics.
My complaint is the continious fights between members of the community.
If people who get to know gridcoin by browsing reddit, and the first things they see is "oh no, another bullshit post by whoever", posted by someone else who also is very active in the community, it may seem contributing isn't very much appreciated, even if the content isn't very informative, but at least they tried.
(I tried posting the same thing in a recent reddit topic, but the thing is nobody can't see it, unless I completely suck in using reddit, but since my other posts are visible to the public...)
I'm just stating an opinion aswell, since I'm a developer myself (only for 2500 people, but still), and communication is key.
We also test in production (because of the same reason of this one), but we do it without "interference", and when there would be, or was, we don't plan it during peak moments.
If there's an exploit to test, but it can only be tested in production, then block 990.000 was a valid point to do it aswell.
Anyway, this ain't the platform, nor the topic to start another bitchfight about this. The accusations towards me and Erkan without any research are, for me, another proof. For what, I'll leave that to you.
Ah, so you want to rally the community together by writing stuff like "now it's my turn to get downvoted" in your very first Steemit post? That won't work, I am afraid (even if you didn't get downvoted).
However, here is the latest, decent-quality introductory post that is indeed rallying communities together (both Steemit and Gridcoin), you might want to take a look at it:
