RE: Is It Acceptable That @yoenelmundo Triggered A Flag War For Spamming @redfishpillar's Blog?
Becareful when flagging. It can turn out to be pretty ugly and you may be at a disadvantage. There are users with very high SP who can destroy yur rep as much negating your account. One thing you do not want to do is start a flagging war. It never ends well for anyone.
Thanks for your piece of advice, @cryptonfused. Are you in a way suggesting that I should allow for unsolicited spam on my blog pages? Help me understand. I wouldn't spam anyone's page and don't expect anyone to spam mine. Anyway, I'm on top of the situation already. Cheers.
I'm not in anyway suggestion or implying any alternative messages than what I wrote. Was only asking that you be careful not to flag the spam yourself. While you are more 100% right to have flagged the spammy content, It may be easier just to tag steamcleaners to avoid any unecessary backlash as this platform, for now, does not protect justisfied flggers or normal users from abitrary flagging. There are a few who do not want to work hard to become successful. They will use cheap tactics to profit from the work of others and will also be the ones who are unwilling to take correction or advise from others. Unfortunately for us, they make up a percentage of the most powerful in society almost rendering us powerless to fight back. The same applies here on this platform. I've seen posts similar to yours on steemit but I'm really surprised this turned into an initiated flag war by a user who is clearly in the wrong. There are some users on this platform who are almost untouchable based on SP in their possession with that same kind of bad attitude.
The platform is still young and growing. I'm sure there will be some sort of plausible solution to this and many other challenges in the near future.
All the Best
Now your take on the issue is clear to me, @cryptonfused, that I shouldn't be the one doing the flagging myself. I will try my best to pay heed to your advise. Steemcleaners couldn't help me deal with this issue. Hopefully, mentioning @patrice, specifically in steemcleaners will help. Thanks a lot!!!
