The weapon doesn´t make the offender.
You won´t ever be able to create a system that changes the people who use it. We´d rather think about WHY these people don´t have anything else to do than attacking others... One possible reason: they are bored. They are not entertained, not amused, not incentivated. Give them a reason to keep themselves busy in a positive way. That´s at least my theory.

As @baah says, there are just too many weapons on the table! It's a tough cookie to crack alright ... until someone cracks it :)
There aren´t more weapons on the table now than 12 months ago. The system is still the same, but people have got bored in the meantime. The platform itself is just not exciting enough anymore. It´s the same thing that happens to kids who haven´t learned how to use their own imagination and creativity. If you don´t keep them busy they start doing stupid things :)
Cookies are actually a good idea. I will have some now.
I took your advice and had some cookies.
Coconut ones
And they were fabulous.
I told 2 more people this week about your hot pepper business Marly!
Oh I love Coconut. Mine had some chocolate chips inside. Not too bad either haha
Thanks for spreading the word!!! Too kind ;)
I share your 'not exciting enough anymore' sentiments ... we need a whale down-vote solution and marketing plan ASAP to rescue us from the mire! Enjoy those cookies :)
Think about a group of kids where suddenly some of the stronger ones start attacking the weak by beating them with toy blocks. Would you believe that the blocks are the problem and give the weaker kids some weapons to defend themselves accordingly? Or would you rather try to analyze why some kids started grouping and attacking the others in order to solve the source of the problem and not its impact?
Again, you can´t fight it by fighting back. That would be a vicious circle. Ask people WHY they behave like that and you´ll find out HOW to stop them.
They are adults behaving like kids ;)
No I haven't read it. I'm done with steemit so not willing to invest much more energy, thoughts, time here, sorry.
Best of luck!!! Sure you will be doing great 👊
I wish you were right. But your "two good cops for one bad cops theory" doesn´t work. The people who are doing well here don´t care about the ones that are attacked. It´s like in real life. Instead of risking to be attacked as well, they rather walk towards the other side of the street. Nothing seen, nothing happened.
Best of luck, I´m done here.
