If you are a whale and you downvote you are making people think Steemit is a scam.

Go on make us all cash out immediately without locking into SteemPower for fear some asshole whale will downvote our accounts into obscurity. You will Beat Facebook that way....

I am almost afraid of liking this post. For fear of retaliation.... And that is not how to build a community.

Do not fear the whales I made 3 grand as matrix dweller while they were busy destroying my blog at @jillstein2016 and another couple hundred as @imarealboy777. Have not gotten any whale upvotes since I revealed myself as owner of all three accounts maybe they embarrassed

do not fear the whales they are just idiots like you and I with more money. I pissed them off with my account @jillstein2016 meanwhile i made 3 grand as @matrixdweller and another hundred or so as @imarealboy777 have not gotten any whales vote since i revealed myself as owner of all three accounts. go figure maybe they embarrassed

Great minds think alike? I just wrote a post called "I am not to be flagged with".

Flagging doesn't just remove the curated contribution for a post. It redistributes the money to everybody else writing quality content. I don't see any point in bashing a whale for his flag even if I disagree with the reasons for his flag. Since he left a comment on his reasons and @dollarvigilante received it in good humour, there was no harm done.

What I do think is that instead of just lecturing people on flagging etiquette over and over, we should have a system in place to hold people accountable for their personal understanding of appropriate flagging so that everybody is required to offer the same respect @berniesanders did by commenting his reason.

It's all fun and games for @dollarvigilante but when whales attack minnows they end up like my first account @jillstein2016 and then there is @smartguylabcoat 90% of his posts would have made 10k each had they been posted by a friend of the whales

I'm sure you'll agree that spamming is a valid reason why your first account got a bad rep. But I understand that we all make mistakes in order to learn from them.

@smartguylabcoat is just like me only he has one less post than I do that got lucky. This is just a lottery and your post is your ticket. If you view it in any other way then your hard work on steemit will only make you bitter...

I would not agree since I began spamming to bring attention to the fact a whale downvoted my entire blog because he felt me posting a single comment on multiple blogs was spammy

I figured since you made a public apology for it you'd agree... My mistake.

I made that apology mostly to game whales in to upvoting me and it made me 20 bucks. I also was genuinely apologizing for taking the wrong route to addresss my anger with the whales whom I still feel started that whole thing by flagging my actual blog over comments I made on other blogs
