I think we're already beginning to see the results, and, so far, knock on wood (or touch wood, depending on where we find ourselves in the world), they're positive.
I think the "good post" and "you're a genius" BS is done for too, but rather than making me sad, the puts a huge smile on my face. I hate brown nosers and yes men. To be honest, I think those were some of the comments that were most getting on my nerves!
Give them a warning and go for the flag, after all we all have high hopes in here !Hope you do not get into the situations like those !
Steem On buddy !
Now that I've got a post on the subject to link to, I'll be giving out flags without warning (it's only the abusive who are going to get them anyway), and then whenever anyone complains, I'll post the link in my response. Job done. I'm feeling good about this. Think it's going to work.
I respect your solution !Afterall you are the one that gets disturbed by the spammers in the comment section along with the others that comes in your profile to comment !
Hope it works out !
