RE: We All Serve a God: Who (or What) is Yours?
Is this true @lundgreenman?
If so, that is bad form.
From the Etiquette Guide mentioned n the Steemit FAQ
#14) Don't flag content just because you disagree or don't like it
This is a big issue and I'm sure some people will disagree with it but I think the majority of the community agrees that the flag issue is for posts which are harmful or abusive and should not be used as a dislike or downvote button. Don't like something? Post a comment explaining why or if you can't be bothered to do that or don't have the time move on.
I'm fairly new here on Steemit, so I don't know if you can unflag something. If you can, and if you flagged this @bullishmoney post, you should remove it.
And yes, the author of the guide @thecryptofiend states
...these ARE guidelines not RULES.
- So you are free to do as you please, but...
- Not that you care, but if you don't, I will no longer hold a conversation with you. Sorry, I agree with the Guide on this point.
If you click on the flag, you will see that one of the reasons they state for a valid use of it is when you believe a post to be hate speech. I'm fine if you disagree with me but try to see it from my perspective. What if I wrote the same post but you swapped out the word atheist for Christian and then ask yourself if you would or would not consider it hate speech? Thanks for your honesty and I'm well aware of Steemit etiquette and don't flag things just because I disagree with something or don't like it. You can check my record and see that I have only ever flagged things RARELY so it's not like I'm rudely flagging people for no good reasons. Thanks for your input and opinions! :)
