RE: @curie has supported you - You might want to consider a witness vote!
While I understand your desire to help the curie project, I believe there is a better way to do it. The way you've done it makes people feel like they HAVE to vote for curie based on the fact that they've received a curie vote. It's no different than a parent throwing a guilt-trip on their child to get said child to do something they don't want to do.
Calling people out publicly like you did is a form of punishment or chastisement. What if many of the people you tagged simply don't understand anything about witness voting, or don't even know it's a thing? You've basically slapped them on the hand for something they didn't even know about. What about those who made an informed choice to not vote for curie? You've shamed them for thinking for themselves.
While I would like to believe that shaming people and making them feel forced into voting wasn't your intention, this is how it came across. What's your course of action now, then? Are you gonna just say "sorry, my bad, deal with it"? Or will you change your approach so that you don't come across as an asshole?
For what it's worth, I was one of the folks on this list and appreciated being informed in this way. I didn't realize curie was a witness, and I had witness votes to spare. If I can help an account that I believe helps the platform, and it's no sweat off my back, I'm happy to do it! I can see how the post might come across as annoying and rude to some, but it comes across in other ways as well. Just another example of the wide variety of perspectives on steemit.
I totally agree to @uniwhisp!
And even if one does not like what @abh12345 has written, there would also be better ways for the criticism that is practiced here! No?
Calm down, nothing really happened!!
This is how it came across to you, and a few others. The majority of the comments on this post are supportive.
However, what cannot be confused is you stating that i have 'come across as an asshole'.
Add you to my ignore list, along with the other person who called me 'a son of a bitch'.
These comments are disgraceful and are genuine reasons to be ashamed.
