RE: Civil War On Steemit: Why Flagging War is Bad For All

in #truth7 years ago

Hey, thanks for the mention and the shout-out on my post. I was a victim, just posted (a mere 12 hours ago!) a happy event for my followers, of purchasing EOS.

That Bernie jerk decided he will downvote any post that mentions 'X'. I don't care what 'X' is, if one chooses to randomly downvote people one should expect that there will be consequences when one chooses to create more "collateral damage".

I wrote a tool to Show Steemit Edits, and just made a post about it if you're interested.

Often, these wars will include people saying things they later decide they didn't want to say; this tool allows you to see the entire edit history.

I even heard of death threats, although haven't read them directly.

You are welcome @libertyteeth , it is quite unfortunate hence why I posted about the issue. Hopefully the issue will be resolved and we focus on more better issues. I am followig you in order to stay in touch and send in my suppor. More success to you.

Wow @libertyteeth so sorry for the down vote on your EOS post which is unnecessary... Just ignore and keep up the good work...death threats you say.m.😱😵.... Hmm....I pray all gets settled as we are a big family here...no wars pls...forgiveness is the key...!

Thanks Ken! Checked out your profile, I like your posts on eggshells and organic eating, so I've followed you.

Yeah, lashing out at others because one is upset with someone else just doesn't seem like proper social behavior. Whether in person, or on-line.

And then, in his post when a minnow said "please consider reversing your downvote on my post I spent nine hours on?" he responded with "don't talk to me, talk to Dan" -- Dan had nothing to do with his attack on that minnow! I pointed that out, with some vitriol in Bernie's direction, because he had attacked me as well without provocation.

And no, Bernie, I do not consider "provocation" to be you posting a random post announcing your downvoting campaign. That's like Douglas Adams's description of Arthur Dent's house destruction paperwork at the beginning of HHGTTG.

If one decides to harm others, then one should expect similar treatment. And making that decision after someone else harmed him, well, he's not thinking straight or clearly, because pretty much nobody discussing EOS knows who Bernie is or his gripe. And now that I know a little, I don't want to know him any more.
