RE: Sweetsssj
Ok I actually used the last 2 hours milling over his and her comments replies etc. Here is what I noticed. It started about 6 days ago. By him, (of course) we know this and don't dispute it. However, the repetitive nature of what ppl are calling "trolling" yes to an extent it is I will agree partially, but the takeaway here for me is that @randompic didn't go all in ballistic until he got knocked down to 4, after getting his mildly few comments down voted, and some lunatic using profanity, aggression, and threats against him. That persons replies WERE NOT down voted by one whale.
I believe this is a problem as well. I read the white paper and both sides can claim fault easily. I did notice something tho about @sweetsssj she has posted comments, but when I go to find context in the comments section, I cannot find the comment that was hyperlinked. I scrolled through hundreds of comments to find the comment in her reply section and there isn't anything there. Now since the blockchain is recording everything, I am beginning to wonder how many comments were deleted after the fact.
I would like steemit founders to fix this. It is a worrisome problem that if spoken about enough outside the platform will damage the Steemit brand. As I said before this is a black eye for Steemit. I will continue to believe so until whale act appropriately.
BTW I was flagged by a whale after responding to a video where the author asked for responses. Nothing happened to him, all that happened was I got flagged, and then ignored by the Steemit help board.
They really need to get their heads out of their collective 4 points of contact and fix this. If this was my baby and my reputation (not just a number beside my name) was on the line, I'd be all over this issue. But hey, that is the way I was raised...
