Actually, a community like this is what steemit needs to keep users. Steem lost me some months ago but i am glad i am back due to the good interaction i find in this community.
It is very to spend hours developing something very creative only to post it and get no one to view it. It is more depressing when it just get a flag for no reason or because the person flagging feels he has the right to flag anything.
People want to engage in a community and not chased. Also, some whales still enjoy voting themselves and their rings, well, i hope this stops someday.
Thank you for this kind comment @futurekr
And I'm sorry it took me a while to reply. I just noticed your old comment a moment ago.
ps.
My own publication has been downvoted really hard. I guess i poke wrong person :)
Cheers, Piotr
