How to lose your reputation in less then 24hrs

in #steem7 years ago

Hello, I am new here on Steemit. I joined in May 2017

This is my first social media site I have ever been on and made a recent BIG mistake that cost me my reputation.

My reputation is everything to me, I have worked very hard with no STEEM building it up to (50).

My reputation is now (5) because of my mistake of sharing to eagerly.

My intention was to share this post as a gift; FREE Author ATS tokens - Get 75 ATS tokens for FREE everyone that joins. http://bounty.authorship.com/ref/S8196624

  • I truely was just wanting to share the wealth.
  • I am deleting these posts.

I upset and caused a lot of good people grief; I would like to apologise to the Steemit Community; @dan, @ned, @adm, @klye, @fractalnode, @leoplaw, @bacchist, @ats-david, @whatsup, @jwolf, @bucho, @erikaflynn, @animate, @artwatch, @alexvan, @venuspcs, @quinneaker, @anialexander, @quinneaker, @hassanabid, and everyone else I spammed.

Big thanks to @celsius100 who put his anger aside to explain spamming to me and suggested making this post to calm the Steemit waters and help retrieve my reputation score.

Please be assured this will not happen again.

Thank you for your time and forgiveness.

I noticed some people tried to warn you on time to stop spamming but you didn't care, so now you got to build again from the ground up buddy...
Well, hope you made enough subscriptions that your ATS balance was worth it ;)

If you read the comments, you would see I was on the understanding I was giving people a gift.
I try to help people if you read my blog you would know that without judging me without all the facts.
Have a good day velimir.

Dude, you were pumping your ATS token reward balance by spamming Steemit. That's why whales flagged you into oblivion. Don't use fancy spins because it s useless now.

It is good you made the post. It will take time to build your reputation back up again and that won't be easy.

Thanks for your comment.
Numbers mean nothing to me @coffeetime. But my Word and Reputation is all I have, so I take a knee here with the apology post.

I DO think its wrong to attack a man's reputation thou.
I believe in karma and true intentions... 10 years now calming the lion within.
In my heart I did nothing wrong, I was sharing a good thing with others I care about(i see all others as former mothers of myself) I wanted to repay them.

I feel sorry for people who lash out like that because in real life 99% of all these people would not attack a man's reputation to his face because most know those are fighting words. Don't matter if your 4 foot tall or 7 foot tall. Attack anyone's rep it's generally Go Time!
150 yrs ago; attack a man's reputation, shoot them down in the street Time.
I am glad I became a human rights defender and meditate daily; to process this injustice and be able to take a knee and say; I am sorry.

You seemed to have not learned your lesson. You posted another referral link right in this post. If you were just 'sharing the wealth' - why did you post a referral link? First you were spamming, you personally profited from the spam. Then you apologized for spamming while continuing to spam. Not buying it.

Hello,
How do you suggest to explain without providing the info?

Good luck rebuilding. I hope the big powers remove their downvotes and restore your reputation quickly.

thank you for your understanding.

We all make mistakes. Let's try to fix this. It might take a little bit, but I think you can get there.

Thanks mate.
I know you didn't mean to cause me pain.
have a good day.

Shit happens, I upvoted this post to get you back on your way.

Many thanks @chieppa1

I am shocked to see and hear so much anger and hate on Steemit?

"Cast the stone if you are guiltless."

We have been really hammering spammers lately. They take from the overall payout of the hardworking content creators.

I did not know of that?
I will never do that again.

On a different note:
Do you happen to know how to convert STEEM savings?
I have $90.15 that I want to convert to STEEM POWER?
ty

If they are in saving, I think you need to withdraw them first. Than can exchange them on the market.

So you think I send them to blocktrades?
what do I use for a receive address?
Steem account name is what?
thank you.

Your Steem Account name should populate. It's my screen name.

gosh what an ordeal for an honest mistake from someone who is new to this whole scene. and working hard to build your reputation then getting it taken away...i didn't know that was even possible? hopefully people move on. you have good content. Always be love!


May happyness follow you where ever you go.
Be well...Thanks @spiceddragon, very kind words of support.

I didn't regard the post as spamming @healthiswealth, as you said..... "share the wealth". I hope your rep builds back up quickly :)

TTFN,
Robster

Thanks Robbie.
Almost back with help from all my friends.
How's your dad dealing with your mom?
whats his username again?
Be well my friend..

My parents separated in 2006, they were divorced 3 years later. He occasionally asks about her but only since the dementia started (probably because of the guilt of me having to deal with it instead of him).

vortexmeister is his channel but he hasn't posted anything since the initial one I helped him with. He's a bit of a technophobe lol.

Catch ya later ;)

Good to see you're back on track. Sounds like you learned a valuable lesion.

@animate


Thanks for caring.
Have a great day!Yes, I learned a valuable lesson @animate.

I am also fairly new to Steemit, and know how easy it is to get confused about what is and isn’t a scam. Good luck going forward!

For instance, someone encouraged signing up for Streemian to boost visibility and use some nice steem tools. But then, Streemian asks for your active key. Makes me uneasy... SCAM or NO SCAM?

Hello, I don't know if it's a scam but I would not give my active key to anyone.
Be well @mhrose!
