RE: I'm under flag attack by the Steemit Puritain Crowd... And they are going to be sorry if they don't stop!

I support you, but you are taking these flags way too serious.

It isn't bullying, attack or harassment.
By threatening a list of people you may have turned this into that direction though.

I want the downvote button back.

Thanks for your support and I'll try to take them less seriously on a personal level... But it does affect my payout.

Well that's the way I feel about it. I'm not threatening them directly with any harm or action against them personally. So it would not qualify for any of the above. I have only taken what is public information on Steemd and put it on my page so people can see who is flagging and trying to suppress my work. If people are going to act like that and call out my work for being porn (when most it really is not and is very tame) and flag it then I'll show them porn and help Steemit at the same time. But it's a Sacrifice play. And I don't want to do it.

I never saw the downvote button but I do think that would be much less offensive. But payouts are so low already than we don't need people feeling like they need to either upvote or downvote everything they see in my opinion and knowing human nature I'm guessing that's why it was removed.

My problem is that they are attacking based on personal bias. Not actual quality of the content. The pictures are good. They are from the same set that was published.

Is as if I went around downvoting everything about Jesus. Just because I'm not a Christian. I find that to be unethical. And if that's what steemit turns in to, a voting war on every post with the crowd with the largest numbers I think that would be death for this ever becoming a massive mainstream site making everyone rich.

The flag button was the downvote button. They just change the name.
