Regarding those who have decided to attempt to take down @steemsports, I would say, "Forgive them - for they know not what they do."

But they know exactly what they're doing. The funny thing (or the not-so-funny thing) is that they believe they are actually "saving" Steemit from "harmful" users. In reality, their actions are causing the most harm and this post is a perfect example of it.

I may not agree with 100% of the things @steemsports does, but you/they have been a huge part of this platform and the first major test of the system. It's unfortunate that there are so many blind people who cannot see the value of that and cannot comprehend how these things work.
