Steem is about freedom and that includes the freedom to be an arse.
This is true and now I've calmed down, I do respect this fact.
But in saying that, I now realise that as a relatively small account, I certainly can't say what I think is best for the platform. Is that really freedom?
You have to decide what fights are worth the risks. There are a few bad actors with serious SP, but a lot of the orcas are only going after those who actively harm the platform.
