RE: Steemit Posting Rules ( guidlines ) For Newbies And The Experienced
You may not put images in your comments.
I criticised you for using an image in your comments, but it was only because you were putting it in almost every comment, it was self-promoting and not relevant to the topic. I didn't flag you for it but I would have if it persisted. I would have then muted you and that would likely be the last we'd see of each other.
In this way we are able to decide for ourselves in a distributed fashion what is abusive and what is not. If you could accept one flag and nobody else ever flagged you for it, you could happily go on posting that image to your heart's content. It's only if lots of people felt as I do that you would probably be under social pressure to stop advertising yourself in comments in this way.
Personally I saw it as branding, a way of getting known everywhere I posted which many responded to that they liked it, at no point was my intention to spam but to promote, I do appreciate the way you handled it though thank you :)
I was just going to ask about this, I've posted a couple pictures in comments but they were related to the original post and just my contribution to the conversation. Thanks for clearing this up :
