We definitely all need to band together, men and women that way nobody who wasn't involved in whatever disputes are going on doesn't get hit by the crossfire like I did today. Especially when I'm here to community build and everyone I have met has been nothing but nice to me and vice versa. I also have to follow one of my rules in life never take anything personal. I hear you@ battleaxe but anything can happen on steemit. Hopefully all the wrinkles get ironed out soon.
Agreed. Collateral damage and cross-fire isn't right. My guess is that @fyrstikken struck first as a demonstration of what could happen.
What he could have done, instead, is announce that he was "going" to do the downvoting.. before he did it... so we could have this same discussion without hurting people's earnings.
My suggestion might be to remove the downvotes until this is solved?
No it wasn't @fyrstikken he is actually a nice guy from what @mindhunter tells me and I trust mindhunter a lot. @fyrstikken never even voted on my latest post and nor does he have to. when It was others with bots who down voted me. I was told because someone with high SP up voted me and the bot these 2 ppl used did it to balance out a 1.20 post at the time. Thats what I meant by crossfire. You can look at the post and see who it was. Yes it would be nice if those 2 people could remove them until whatever problem was solved but like I said this is steemit anything can happen, its not fair and right my earnings have to hurt but I consider myself lucky to be a part of this community and I'm learning. I don't know if what I was told was even accurate but I have faith in the person who told me.
Thank you. But when you have no control over the situation and you are dealing with people with SP that can destroy you with one click or slide in this case! What can you do? I can still reach my destination by talking to them and finding out what happened exactly. I'm here for the long term and to make friends and community build. Plus, I don't get involved in other peoples business. As far as my situation I will talk to the 2 people tomorrow and see what and why this happened. @intelliguy #diplomacy :)

Your motto on your profile which is really meaningful applies here:

p.s. following you!
Strange situation to pick up a follower... but my stuff is usually inspirational. I hope I won't let you down. :)
@mindhunter is solid, he's a good guy who sees through b.s. and I respect his opinion too
