I concur completely. My issue, which prompted this discourse, was the behavior displayed by @jaguar.force in the SteemFlagRewards Discord Server. You may of course check your logs for a complete record of the exchange and the participants.
Though understanding the existence for groups such as your own on the STEEM Platform and my support for the most part, I do not condone willy nilly use of down-votes.
You, sir, and your members are well known on STEEM. I would hate to see you or your group's integrity and motivations be brought into question. As a fellow Marine Veteran, I am sure you value your integrity and honor as I do mine. That is what is on-the-line here.
You have my respect as well as thanks for your contributions to our blockchain. I support everyone that works hard to repel those that would unethically profit from the Reward Pool at the expense of others.
What I will not be party to is: intimidation, extortion, quid-pro-quo when it comes to the use of up-votes or down-votes by anyone.
I experienced some of the above in the SteemFlagServer by @jaguar.force. While I understand that passions run high at times on STEEM, one must be held responsible for their actions and statements.
At present, I do not have any concrete proof that my accusation describing @jaguar.force as, indeed, @walden. I just have my suspicions.
My advice? That before planning a massive down-voting campaign, I would research accusations, seek counsel from others (both pros and cons), and then make an informed decision.
Many of us on STEEM are watching...
