I find a lot of this 'protecting Steemit' quite upsetting. The very cute 'IamGrootbot' recently posted that it is still being flagged by people, even thought it will only post on your page if you indicate that you want it to (and it then resteems your post). Downvoting this very cute post is a bit like kicking Bambi!!!! There's room for all sorts...
And I will add that "protecting" isn't really protecting....it's harmful. If people start walking away in droves due to attacks, the value of the whole platform drops in every way. Like we learned in school, we all just need to play nice here.....or go back to the wastebook drama! haha
Very true!
