While it may not be a scam in your opinion, it could be considered spam. Spam is not appreciated by the community and could be flagged or may result in action from the cheetah bot..
Some things that can be considered spam:
- Banner ads of any kind
- Referral links/codes
- Repeating the same post
- Links to known scams, phishing sites, and other dangerous links
In that case, I see the point of flagging. I thought bitconnect posts were being flagged for identifying it as a scam coin. Definitely not want spam in our steem community. Thanks for clarifying.
