How dare you flag her! You only joined Steemit now, in January 2018, and you think you have the right to flag people who are worth more than ten of you!
What you have done is mean and I have decided you deserve to be flagged. I just wish I had the power to flag you to zero forever.
Of course the bots you've approved do not intend making a profit - they do it because they love us?
Earlier today, I saw somebody who had been flagged to zero rep. I tried to be helpful and suggested he look through his posts to find out why he has such powerful enemies (bernie etc). I also suggested that if he cannot get them to leave him alone, he should abandon his account and open a new one (he is fairly new, so does not have that much to lose).
His reaction? Somehow he got a sum delegated and he has since yesterday flagged almost every post of mine that can still be flagged. At best I make cents or a dollar or two now and then, so I have nothing to lose, but...it galls and I am angry.
And you want to convince me I must pay a bot that makes certain flaggers can downvote me?
I'm sorry, but I do not subscribe to that kind of tactical logic.
If you are such do-gooders and so influential, why don't you have the Mute button changed so that the person I mute cannot see my posts and comments and can never again see my home page. Now, that kind of practical idea I would be glad to support - but I have a feeling you have a good reason for not doing it, but you want the small posters to do as you say so as to stop the rape of the reward pool, while dolphins and whales rape it with impunity. Go stop them first, then I'll trust you. Trust must be earned, I do not just give it because it is demanded.
@annadeda, sorry to place this argument on your page, especially since it is a lovely photo which is meant to calm our hearts, but I'm fed up of all these do-gooders telling us what to do, just like the EU - all un-elected people who think they have the right to demand we live according to their rules, even if it destroys us.

I think this @kilbride is probably a puppet account, set up by one of the vote-bot owners to discredit @grumpycat's campaign. And judging from your response, it seems to be working.
I know that #grumpycat is demanding bots make payments within first 3.5 days, so in that sense, I have not been misled. I disagree with them and don't see why they have the right to impose their own views on everybody in Steemit.
I'm no grumpy fan, but the part about fighting unmoderated comment bots, I'm glad somebody has the balls to at least do something about them. Wish more big fish would take a wider stance against unmoderated vote bots, because they really are a growing problem.
As for this Kilbride character, he is posting fake grumpy post in response to people who don't even use vote bots. I don't think he is related to grumpy at all. In fact, it's not unlikely that one of the unmoderated votebot owners is behind this account and the whole reason for mass posting fake grumpy posts is to make as many people as possible misdirect their anger about kilbride's spurious nonsense at grumpy and at his campaign. If you get mad at grumpy, you are likely playing right into the agenda of whoever kilbride's pupeteer turns out to be.
I was hacked!! I'm so sorry I just got the account back and am cleaning up the spam comments the hackers made. I'm reading a lot of angry comments today :( The hackers used this as a comment because it was well known to try and get others to click. I have like 250 comments to edit and respond to 0_o talk about being new to steemit ;)
I commented below, I'm not sure how they link in replies on here so I wanted to make sure you saw it
I wish I knew how to do some hacking...
:)
I took the time to look through your posts and I found them to be quality posts and I like your wry sense of humour, so please consider my above attacks as not being against you, but targetted at the hacker. #kilbride , I took your comment here with a pinch of salt (unlike you, I ran a creche and enjoyed having kids around me all day, but they taught me to become a bit cynical about excuses).
You write well and I was surprised to find there are no stories or poems posted by you, but still, I've decided to do a follow (see, out of bad things, good can make an appearance sometimes).
Also, I'm just a regular person who has had the lousiest first introduction ever
I hope, not so lousy anymore....
