RE: In Response To The #HeartGoodnessChallenge: Why I'll Do My Good Deeds From True Heartfelt Service - NOT The Need For Public Applause...
I completely understand @jennamarbles ' intentions - noble they certainly are - but I agree with @piedpiper . It's best for the community at this stage to not to have competitions and divisions, particularly based on what is a noble idea. It is just going to divide us.
That said, if you truly fulfill your promise of supporting charities without any other agenda, all power to you, Sir. :)
They all say that don't like my method of presentation, but I have no one to tell. Us 30 thousand and everyone says different.. I'd like to discuss many issues, how to do better. To ask for advice.
And instead of support get the blame. I wanted it to be fun. And STEEMIT filled with good deeds.
I know, I know. Like I said before, both here and on @piedpiper's post, I admire and respect your intentions. Don't worry about it, keep doing what you're doing. We are just expressing our opinions.
Maybe you can organise something where you encourage people to do good deeds. BUT not make it a challenge or a competition. Good deeds should be done without any other motivation but to do the good deed, and certainly not to win a challenge or competition.
I long thought how to think of it as a game . And I came across a video - calling the " ice - bucket " I was surprised by its popularity . I thought it an excellent idea. STEEMIT are lacking in the communities where they could share with his idea to ask for advice .
Regarding @rok-sivante
This was a very low-quality rehash of @piedpiper 's article.
Anyways, you're not any better and I resent your arrogant undertones.
You're trying to play morally superior by hinting @jennamarbles was dishonest (regardless of your disclaimer "oh but I'm sure she's nice").
Her challenge was no attack, so I see no reason to shit on it.
I've personally spoken to @jennamarble and she's a friendly person, so I really disapprove of this base behaviour.
However, I resent your sanctimonious tone, and if there's a person I resent it's a sanctimonious person.
You are NOT better than her for deciding to declare your charity donations.
After all your are deciding to declare your decision NOT to declare your charity donations, so your criticism should be pointed at yourself.
I never meant to suggest I'm better in any way. However, it is possible that's how it came across. It's quite possible that as Kate's message came off differently than intended, so did mine. And it's quite possible that there are indeed arrogant undertones in the writing. I did used to be a pretty condescending, arrogant bastard - and while I've weeded out alot of my shadow traits, there's no doubt some arrogance left that might creep in from time to time. and perhaps, there is still some sanctimoniousness left in my shadows that you're helping bring light to.
As such, I thank you for bringing this to my attention. While I feel your separate article was going over the top and bordering on defamation, I see the clarity in what you put forth here, respect the straightforwardness - and while my ego may not be happy, do appreciate the feedback.
I never meant it to be any sort of shitting on Kate, simply honest feedback of how she rubbed me the wrong way with the presentation of her challenge.
Though the irony of this loop - clearly, your feedback is simply honest feedback of how I rubbed you the wrong way - proving that what triggered me about Kate's miscommunication also exists in me.
Have you tried speaking to @rok-sivante? I read that you accused Kate of being a bot before (or is it your tactic to create a reaction from her, so you can get her number :)), now I learned that you gave her a benefit of the doubt and reached out to her. You accused Rok (and me. Unfairly so) at a point of defamation, and still got a fair response. Don't you think it's fair if you do the same and reach out to him, if you're SO passionate about this issue?
I agree that Kate meant no harm btw.
haha! I thought she was a Catfish. :)
We have spoken, and I feel as though he's a good guy after all.
So you have spoken to Rok before? If that's what I thought you were saying, than I know for sure that you are not telling the truth.
I have no idea what you mean? Perhaps English is a language barrier.
Are you asking me if I've discussed this matter on steemit with rok-sivante? If so, then I have.
Quote: "I've personaly spoken to jennamarbles, and she's a friendly person." That's what I meant by reaching out. You haven't tried to reach out or spoken to Rok.
My understanding is speaking to someone and chatting with someone on comment section is two different things.
