it's not just the single bad user that's the problem, though...it's the lack of action from people that COULD actually prevent the bad user from abusing the system. those two things together are a powerful way to make the platform look and work in less than ideal ways.

Still doesn't mean we should stop supporting steem
i never said to stop supporting it...i was genuinely asking why, if the largest problems are never fixed, why one should continue supporting the platform. if the glaring issue is the one that seems to be the one most people are pissed off by, but the people who can fix it choose not to do so, then what does that say about the platform in general?
bottom line: it's not a good look and it turns a lot of people off. it certainly makes it harder to bring more people TO the platform when this kind of nonsense is pervasive.
Because it isnt a single easy problem that people are choosing to ignore - its a difficult problem that people are actively trying to solve. This thread is evidence that we are currently trying to fix it.
