I'm down, now we just need a secret handshake :p
I think one of the cool new features that Steem Engine provides will be an oasis from all this. If it gets really bad people might just ignore the Steem rewards and focus on the Scot projects. Pal and Leo already have these changes and there hasn't been a change in typical user behavior(of course it's still early), but what I love, even though it's controversial is the mute feature, which basically means, that content or behavior that 99.999999% of all of us would agree is
unacceptable, can just be shut down before it gains a major foothold like it has at the base layer.
For everything else, live and let live.
We are in the user acquisition phase of our development. People are adding value just by being here, and hopefully having enough fun to invite their friends. If they're greeted by a bunch of wannabe cops telling them what they can and can't do, how to post, what's acceptable, blah, blah, blah, they're just going to leave, and we don't want that.
Again, if it's clear cut abuse,(no content self upvote spam, or plagiarism/theft)by all means, let's downvote that to zero, but downvoting someones honest content, because you don't like it, doesn't add value to the platform, it takes it away.
I've dropped a few warnings and flags in the oasis, almost exclusively for using wrong tags. I don't want to see actifit on steemleo.
On a post I gave a warning, leocurator flagged the post for the same reason. I don't think there as obvious tag abuse on steem/palnet, and spam/plagarisiam/100% selfie maximisers are more the issue.
Agree fully with this being the user acquisition phase, people are adding value by just being here - most of them.
