RE: Daily Flag Report 11.18.17

in #steemit7 years ago

The first author I check when I come onto Steemit in the morning is @michelle.gent. Her writing adds value to my Steemit experience and I'm appalled that, out of all the people on Steemit, you're targetting her. I'm not familiar with @suesa but am now interested in checking out their work.

Sort:  

If you want to finance the production of these chapters without oversight from the community you're free to send your own Steem/SBD directly to the author's account.

What oversight? I don't see the issue with votes being directed at authors. Unless you can demonstrate that she somehow defrauded the people voting for her, what transgression has occurred? What sort of boundary has she crossed that you can provide a logical reason for acting? Thus far, you've given examples of timeliness and exposure - both reasonable criteria - but unless there's some sort of collusion, I fail to see how either of these issues is reason enough to knock rewards on a post that is original content and demonstrates a significant amount of effort. This isn't a shitpost. There's plenty of other content to flag where reasons for the flag are clear cut and well-supported.
