RE: What are the rules in steemit regarding advertisement and giveaways? How about bullying?
I’ve seen others that were getting flagged for no reason or explanation.
From the Steemit FAQ Page:
What are the valid reasons for downvoting?
Users are allowed to downvote for any reason that they want. There are many users in the community who recommend only using the downvote on posts that are abusive. It is up to you if you want to follow this etiquette.
yes it is a feature or a tool to make sure steemit is clean and true... but also nothing is stopping it from being abused.
I just saw a spam on some else's post where that spammer commenting his own MLM advertisement totally unrelated to the post. Also got flagged by @cheetah. That spam does deserve a downvote
When one steps back and thinks about it, there is absolutely nothing that can be done about people abusing people. Action can be taken After the act, but nothing stops abuse. Well that is not quite right, people can stop abusing other people, but only people can do that as a group and a whole, and you can never get ALL the people to do something.
