RE: The missing Hive Watchers FAQ

in #hivewatchers4 years ago

There's a lot of banter in there about being 'mean', but most of them have good intentions. I do not agree with going after someone out of spite, but people are free to use their voting power as they want. I do know I have seen a lot of good work done by people there.

Sort:  

I think "Banter" is an understatement. People join Discord channels to have an immediate communication experience with Hive users rather than waiting for a comment of reply on a post. I find it strange that people talk about members leaving Hive because of a perceived Toxic behaviour, and yet Hive-DR relishes in the reputation of being what some might argue, cruel. I like a joke along with the next person, and yes, in my time, I've said some dreadful things, but I'm trying to rehabilitate myself with Hive, so I'm a bit like one of those "Born again" types when it comes to how we should all treat one another in these communities.

As I said. There are a few people I really like, such as yourself, who hang out in that channel, so I suspect it would have been a good experience for me, but I'm not willing to expose myself or sink to that level again. 🙏🤣

I believe there was 'someone' going after me. I had a member DM me (I can show you if you like?) and apologise for their behaviour and advised I left the channel for my own safety! Fortunately, I had muted them long before they got into their stride.

I'm not saying there are no nasty people there. Some have been ejected in the past. I've got to know some of them and respect their opinions. I use it as a place to find where my downvote can be of use. HW does not handle all cases, but I let them do their thing generally.

How people come across online can give a wrong impression as you will know. Initial impressions can be misleading.

But then I keep saying Hive is the wild west and you will get some wrong-uns.
