Figure out a way to bring down the dictator, or take my advice - grab whatever is in your account and run. If he's not dealt with, this place doomed. And it doesn't look like anyone is doing anything to stop his bullying.

That sounds bleak. I wish there is something I could do. So sorry.
Why do you feel that way?
Because the success of the platform depends on the stakeholders.
Stakeholders can do anything they want with their stake. Stakeholders who disapprove can oppose them. And stakeholders who oppose that, can oppose that. And so on.
It all boils down to who is willing to stick to the drama the longest and match it with their stake.
I don't see how this dooms the platform. In fact, I see it as an avenue of possible growth.
Stakeholders can disapprove and oppose another stakeholder smaller than them. But who does in this case?
Imagine if Facebook had a massive stake holder who went around harassing users with accusations and name calling. Imagine if mark zuckerberg just said "I don't see a problem with this... Stakeholders first"
@ned & @sneak will see their users ran off the platform before they realise what gives their token value.
Not my point.
Ignore the meth rat.
Your point (I'm not entirely sure) was we could find people actually buying SP in order to have enough power to oppose the views or behaviours of another. We had one whale who entered on that premise. He left within 2 months having solved nothing. Majority of people powering up are not getting involved in the drama at all. Majority getting targeted are powering down. So sorry I failed to see your point the first time (if I have it right)
Right. We should not implement ideas that undermine SP.
If a stakeholder acts a certain way, the solution is not to set an influence cap and single them out because that undermines SP.
Allowing smaller stakeholders to have a greater influence than larger ones is a functional influence cap.
Influence caps will doom the platform.
Because going below a dime looks bad?
Though i'm hoping it does, i think things might change then.
We also get more steem per voted vests.
The longest term hodlers stand to only gain in such a scenario, imo.
Because he will keep attacking, insulting and using his botnet to destroy anyone who dares question his reign of terror. Don't you see that?
Besides, with enough authors getting bullied into leaving the platform and then using other platforms (where they have more followers, perhaps) to tell the truth about steemit and who really controls it? Good luck trying to recover the reputation of the platform that is quickly becoming the 4chan of the crypto world.
Actually, there are tons of people here who appreciate what I do, you can see all of the new witness votes on @nextgencrypto just today!
its not the "what" that everyone have problem with. its the "how".
i bet that you are ugly in real life and this is just a way to express your sadness.
Oh you mean all your fake users? Your imaginary friends?
No, I don't. What is he destroying?
He's using flags when people talk bullshit for no reason! And against posts that have little to no views with $40+ rewards.
No issue here.
He's put his bot army on me to destroy any chance I have of getting even one viewer. He wrote so. It's his goal. Because I am a "moron" and a "bitch". And I am certain I am not the first nor the last he is doing this to. He abuses flagging non-stop and there's no way to counter this ABUSE of the tool. So he's also destroying, well, the meaning of flagging and downvoting. It's not for reporting abuse or spam. It's for bullying. You might as well change the dialog text.
