Ha, yeah, sharing promotional links in general chats should probably have a better word than "spam", I just don't know what it is. Downvote only shows up when the request is to remove is ignored in chat - usually because they only opened the chat to drop a link then closed it again

classic 😀

and yeah, downvotes are effective for attention in those cases, as long as people also remove them after the "spam" is undone like you did.

I agree
that was a mistake and instantly I removed the post from the channel

but as a new user of hive and for a original long article when you see a public tag "marked as spam" dents the persons reputation bad.

people who did not know exactly what I did would assume I copied content from someone's article for it to be tagged spam or something.

Fair point. If it comes up in the future, I'll be more clear about what happened, how to fix it, and note that the dv will be removed. Sorry if it freaked you out

Thanks
I feel better after the discussion :)
and glad you understand.

TBH I was never expecting a reply from your account here. I thought this was a bot that flagged it.

I was about to send this article to my friends on telegram but now the 1st thing they will see is that this is SPAM

I cant send them now :(

too bad

surely

my mistake to begin with.

Easy enough to fix. Just ask if something like this happens in the future. Most people around here are cool and not looking to make anyone suffer (give me 5 minutes or so and refresh)

alright
thanks

I am glad you observed

my mistake though

haha

at first I thought I tagged too many people on twitter lol

we'll be working a bit more on the @poshtoken soon to render tagging people for attention to their posts obsolete, at least those who already are on hive. ^^

make sure to register so you earn posh tokens for sharing your links on twitter, there's a howto post with details on how earning works too!

I did register
but did not get posh I believe

I followed your instructions the last time.

Does seem like you're registered here, there's some requirements for amount of likes and stuff to get tokens, though. We should also add a way to search for usernames and total earned tokens on a better website soon.

You're registered at least so it should work!
