As was my flagging was a test. As was this whole post was a test. I am testing this system for weaknesses. It appears that the flagging of content is a weakness that is often used when people are not in agreement. On persons flag is more powerful than someone else.
Just like voting. The wealthiest and most powerful have the most means to control content they wish to see. I see no difference between steemit and existing media structures if this is allowed to continue.
Flagged because you appear to be revenge flagging everything @jsteck has posted. IMO, you don't deserve the reputation score you currently have and, since I've invested in this platform, I think your actions are detrimental to it.
Fair enough. Even though I removed the flags. I value your opinion far more than I do if you flag me. This whole thing is an experiment. As I love blockchain technologies, I love to see how far I can push them until they break. It appears the human element is steemits greatest weakness.
Let me write an article about the crazy old socialist named bernie sanders and see how that plays out :-D
Thank you for removing the flags. I also have removed all of my flags, other than the comment which still reads "CENSORED" because I believe that's an invalid accusation. I appreciate you changing this post to "deleted" which is a more accurate description and, more importantly, not a false accusation.
It appears the human element is steemits greatest weakness.
It may be. It may also be what saves it. If this was purely a blockchain technology, this dialogue you and I had would not have happened and therefore no chance of a future understanding would be possible.
You are free to write what ever you want. The only thing which may break are your own expectations. Nothing is owed to anyone. We can only earn or lose respect with each and every action we take towards others and ourselves.
@keithsmith I would appreciate it if you would remove your revenge flags as you can clearly see I never flagged you. While there may not be a clear consensus on how to use flags, revenge flag bombing is generally not accepted by most people here.
Thank you for your opinion
That was a test. I didn't even flag you. But you went ahead and flagged me!

Thank you for your comments. Very insightful. I am but a human myself and imperfect in more ways than perfect.

I will read it. Thank you for removing the flags. You're proving out that the human element is steemit's greatest strength.

It appears he has done so. :)
I just saw that on steemd. I am going to write him a note.
