My (Final) Solution to the Flagging Drama
Flagging is a topic on Steemit everyday. It seems to be hurting feelings. People are trying to come up with different solutions to the issue.
I have finally come up with a way to preserve the flagging feature as a mechanism, but to also spare all hurt feelings across the platform.
We replace the flag with a balloon!
The benefits are obvious:
With the new system, with upvotes and balloons, the user wins either way!
- You get an upvote, you get rewards. Great!
- You get a balloon, well, hey, free balloon!
Who doesn't like a free balloon?
Also, something that could be considered is even using a Wigglytuff, the balloon pokémon, according to the Pokédex:
Who could ever be upset at receiving a Wigglytuff?
Steemit, are you with me!
Credit to @ats-david for making me realize the glory of balloons!
Or people could just hike up their big boy/girl pants and get over it.
There's that, too.
I can see the benefits of this proposal already!
Yes!
I have been Trigglypuffed!
what about her? We might need to think for something less dangerous...
A free pickle.
Somebody give this man a free balloon!
Why not puppies - or a "safe space" icon?
Flaggin is wrong.
Eliminate it from Steemit.
Yup... I can totally get behind this initiative. Pretty much any word other than flag would be an improvement... even if nothing else were different.
lol I don't know if serious but that was funny!
