Well, all I can say is that the flag wars have now brought my attention to where the money is flowing here on steem. I am hesitant to say anything specific, because I may be completely censored at any time and have my reputation destroyed, something that I have worked very hard to build - I have posted MANY original contents, including many original musical works that took days or weeks in some cases, to build said reputation. I have now seen the darker side of steemit, whereas my standing could be DESTROYED in a matter of minutes by saying the wrong thing...
One of the prime reasons steemit appealed to me is the lack of censorship, but now I realize I am self-censoring here more than I would have on FaceBook, and that is SCARY, especially because I never invested more than my time on FB... really I hesitate to press the post button for these same reasons, because I am just a minnow and dont have whales I can turn to. I actually think the site might work better if there were posting limits and NO FLAGGING, wouldnt that make more sense?
Or, possibly one flag per day? But right the flagging abuse is rampant and seems to have hit such lows, and a great point made by many recently s : why would celebs want to move to such a platform - shucks I am even more hesitant to tell my friends about steemit after seeing the trending posts over the past weeks.
Blog More, Hate Less.
It's my new steemit motto - won't you join me?
Your point is valid, I agree..however no need to fear rather post great contents and ignore the haters andbe positive..success to you.
