Each blacklist has their own resolution/appeals process.
Each blacklist has their own process for adding people to the blacklist.
Again, it's up to the individual blacklist. The API only supports the blacklists that are created and maintained by the community.
So, all your building in a API that can connect to any generic blacklist?
In other words, you can have 30 different lists out there, each one with their own criteria for adding/removing to the list?
Kind of yes, it is an API that takes 10 different blacklists throughout the community and provides a standardized interface for projects and dapps to query if a user is on any of the blacklists.
I provide one of the largest and most active blacklist and supply access to 9 others as well as all the tribes.
For your blacklist, being the most active one, do you have documentation on my questions above?
My blacklist is solely managed by me, it is public but no one else contributes. There is an appeals channel on my Discord.
Not trying to attack you, but don't you see this as a type of dictatorship? You're literally a centralized source of authority. And I know that others can do the same thing, but do they really have the same power and clout as you?
If it was centralized, there would be only one blacklist.
A blacklist doesn't prevent someone from posting and earning. It is a warning sign that someone is a bad actor.
There is no police or law on Steem, so it is up to the community to police itself. Most people are unable to and don't want to put the effort in to prevent spam, abuse, harassment, plagiarism, and scams.
Some of us go out of our way and put a lot of time trying to keep the community clean and safe.
Yeah, (sighs) I understand your motivation. I think you're, most likely, a good person with good intentions. I just wish there was another way...but...as you said, there is no police or law in steem.
This is as good as it gets for now. And I pray you be a good and wise king, lol :-)
I was blacklisted by steemstem community and I have no idea who they are. I've been off steemit for about a year....there is no information on how to resolve a blacklist by separate entities.
You would need to contact them on their Discord.
Thank you :-)
I'd like to start my own blacklist, is there a post or some other link that you know of that could help me get started?
Any text editor would do.
