It's not a matter of research, and it's rude of you to insinuate I don't know what I'm talking about. Your emotional reaction aside, I'll change the word to "blocked" rather than "deleted".
It IS deleted as far as they're able to - the @thedarkoverlord account doesn't even exist on Steemit.com anymore (the message users get is "Sorry! This page doesn't exist!"), and nothing about the account or posts can be found. But technically it's probably closer to a "block", a "ban", or "censored" - than "deleted". I'll change it to avoid triggering anyone else into making personal attacks.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
There is a big difference between a Condenser Node blocking an account and saying the account has been deleted. They are different words for a reason. They mean different things!
Saying the account was deleted sounds a lot like the blockchain has been altered; which it has not! Your comnent was pure FUD, intentionally or otherwise.
Fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) are reactions. You're the one bringing those reactions.
Dude, you really have to step up your research game. 😎

It makes even less sense by that definition.
"Fear, uncertainty and doubt (often shortened to FUD) is a disinformation strategy."
I'm sure you're not so misguided that you were claiming this post was a disinfo strategy. I'm a content-creator and I need to produce content where there isn't censorship. Steemit isn't that site. Your emotional reactions are irrelevant.
If what you actually meant was "unintentionally slightly wrong", because I used the word 'deleted' rather than 'banned/blocked/censored', why did you use the term FUD (disinfo strategy used in sales, marketing, public relations, politics, cults, propaganda)? Why didn't you say "your post is inaccurate"?
Because you had an emotional reaction to what you thought I said. I'm a content-creator (not a programmer or developer etc) and this is a post about me being unhappy that Steemit is censoring content. There was no intention to spread fear uncertainty and doubt and I think you know that.
