Excellent instructable that shows how @steemflagrewards works under the hood, how to use it in easy to understand language and also bringing to light the age old problem of bid bot abuse.

I appreciate that you conveyed the approximate SP requirement for flaggers to get upvoted. I didn't realize it is starting to take that much to meet the dust threshold. It's good to know!

Check the SP of the account for your safety

That is some wise advise right there. Revenge flagging is certainly a thing. Never flag with Reputation you cannot afford to lose. This is not financial advice.

Also, thanks for the mention in the credits and stepping up to the task as SFR Admin and so much more. We could not have reached this point if it were not for your hard work and perseverance. It's inspiring.

Great post @iamstan and a very good introduction to @steemflagrewards. Good flagging can bring balance to the steem blockchain. Thank you for all the amazing work you do!

Excellent post Stan! I don't understand how people ask for respect, when their contributions in themselves are a disrespect to all of us who take a long time to read, research and then translate all this into our entries.

I think they confuse freedom of expression with freedom over the rights of others. It is not freedom when the pool of rewards is violated and the value is taken away from a network that seeks to give opportunities to thousands of independent writers, cartoonists, photographers and free thinkers.

Thanks for your hard work!

Thanks for all your hard work to make steemit a better place.

Keep it up lads, SFR is the last place I visit every night before crashing. Any SP I have left in the kitty I expend it on flags for the unworthy. I rely on you guys to find the crap for me, and I know it takes time to find it.

Very well explained! Another must read for persons who want to contribute to the platform by combating abuse.

Ya, let's make steemit a better place.

"You may not know me, but if you dig far enough, you'll find the first time I got flagged. Not for disagreement of rewards, but for retaliation.

Come full circle, I'm flagging too. But I'm here to show you how to flag properly." @iamstan

Flagging content you don't like instead of following the specific categories of abuse.

Seems like you didn't learn much from your first flag, retaliation flags...emotions and life getting in the way?

@iamstan is well in his right to down-vote you for personal reasons.
It's all just a part of curation process.
Some people up-vote what they like, other up-vote to get curation rewards, and, some down-vote what they dislike.
If it wasn't meant to be used, it wouldn't be put in place.

Truth, however i choose to use my voting power for good rather than cause havock and troll. If i see spam or copyright infringement im going to flag.

Does @anthonyadavisii know that for dummies logo is plagiarism and violates the registered trademark of J. Wiley & Sons, Inc.

"In fact, the Dummies series, the Dummies guy, the color scheme, all of that is a registered trademark of J. Wiley & Sons, Inc. (and originally it was IDG Books, an imprint of IDG Corporation out of Boston, but the history of the imprint and gradual evolution of the Dummies press is a whole ‘nother, quite interesting story, but not relevant here).

No, don't use the Dummies trade dress without licenseWhat you’re asking me about is whether it’s okay to violate trademarks and copyright, and of course the answer is that it isn’t. This falls into the area of intellectual property and I will warn you that it’s one of the most aggressively defended areas of corporate law. For example, companies with well-known trademarked characters like Disney have teams of lawyers that pursue any copyright violation"

@fry,

Looks like you're having a hard time coping with the fact that you got flagged for posting a Trading View link as a body.

I don't think what you replaced it with was worth any rewards either to be honest. I really don't as it doesn't look like you are adding anything novel to Steem but rather regurgitated data from another site. You had like 9 words of commentary.

In any case, I did a hand drawn version of the graphic to alleviate your concerns. The "For Dummies" was a way to express the idea of simplifying what we do. Could have broken it down Barney Style but guess I wouldn't be able to use that likeness either under your austere guidelines.

You were flagged because it appeared that what you were doing was not really adding anything of unique value to the chain. I believe Stan was right in that judgment and you making a big deal about the image that I tailored for the memetic value via a process involvign both time and effort is just a smoke screen from you creating lackluster content.

Seriously, if you spend half of the energy you used being a nuisance, you could have probably made a t least a dollar by now on creating novel content.

It's still my content, many people link their posts from other sites, next time I will include more pictures and analysis + show my work.

As far as your picture goes, see where I'm coming from. You're trying to set an example, smokescreen or not your copyright infringement (you literally copied the logo) is much worse than poorly written content, not sure if you know this but i post links first to get the signal out there and add to my analysis over time. My posts are work in progress, maybe I'm using steem wrong.

To say this guy and his buddies did the right thing by trolling me is smokescreen in my eyes. All my content is origional, I spend a lot of time studying charts and I don't update threads right away. I run a company on my own. I understand you need to defend your help though.
