RE: People keep saying HF19 increased post values. Mine have all gone DOWN though?

in #steem7 years ago (edited)

Partially market value, and partially because the post was flagged down by a whale who is jealous of my increasing success who seems to have a disagreement with myself and several other users I know who got into a bit of an argument with him about his treatment of women on Steemit, which was abusive. When we defended some of the women he harrassed by flagging his comments, he flagged our posts and it has damaged my income on several of them because of his voting "weight".

Be nice always. I did the right thing, and I am now going to just accept the losses from his rage flagging and hope that eventually he gets bored and goes away.

Don't let that discourage you. There will always be trolls and bullies on social networks and they will always be jealous of those of us with integrity, backbones and some popularity. I guess you could say, being attacked by a troll is a form of flattery and a proof I am doing something right? :)

Sort:  

i really appreciate that you stand for the truth and someone's rights... it does not discourage me at all and other then that i found it informative...it seem like that the steemit to going to become centralize currency....it is a public currency right? ...and not come under any government but they made this mistake over here and made some people whales...now they have the power to judge... if they keep this concept far way then they will become myspace.com ....

It's not new, it's as old as the internet itself, on fakebook and twigger and myface too. Back in the day on BBSes and all. It gets worse with scale, however, here it affects placement, visibility and money, so it's going to escalate quickly into a war if there is no precedent set for managing bad actors.
