So, I like pretty much everyone in and on and around this post.

What if we spent all this energy growing Steem?

@lyndsaybowes you are a class act...

I think bernie is usually pretty funny although he goes to far sometimes.

I really haven't been exposed much to FTG. I know of him of course, but things I have heard have mostly been good.

Time to suck it up and remember everyone can have different views and actions on Steem and we don't have to all agree.

Would be great if we could spend our energy pulling steem up instead of pulling each other down.

Much love I have for you @whatsup <3 <3 <3 You are a shining light, and are truly needed! I hope your words come true...

Interesting to know, I didn´t knew about this war. I once saw Bernie´s account and read him and I just thought he was weird and let it go haha. But wow, people still voting for posts like that. I would like to have half of that votes could be helpful - very - rofl.
I have been reading ´bout fulltime geek and he is a great assistance, has done interesting things to support people. Thanks for sharing.

You’ll never get those votes because nobody cares about you.

@berniesanders..I care about me and I write because I enjoy it and I don´t care if I am a big whale or not, or I have votes or not. Thanks god I have a real life outside the pc and I don´t need to post shit in social media...that is what happens with people like you that protects behind a computer screen. So, buy a life with your steem ;)

Good one. Real original.

well, I am real and original. You are just a character that just posts 3 or 4 words thinking that his life reduces to that..writing shit about others. if you are so sure about yourself and a big self-steem you wouldnt have time to come and bother people. You would just ignore us. This just shows that all what others say is true.So if you want to keep having FUN ...have fun but not with abusing others!!! Keep your followers entertained and let others speak whatever they want

You call it abuse, I call it dealing with nutjob flat-earthers.

well, i dont know why you feed them, wasting yorur time and efforts to "dealing" with them. Just focus on your funny posts - we all have the right to not like your material and not due to that you can come in every comment and say non-sense. What if they beLIEve if the earth is flat or round? If it bothers you then you aren´t sure about your own truth, If you are sure about it you wouldn´t feel any "movement" inside you. Live and let live. And also; choose your battles my friend cause you will end exhausted figthing against thin air. Have a nice day!!

Happy Thanksgiving.

lol, this man! xD

Great Rant I just love it! And @lozzmon he is definitely well prepared now for any kind of disturbance that may happen here on Steem. Don't get this community wrong here are many great people who care about each other...Steem on!!!
!popcorn

Hey, thanks for commenting! Yes, good ol' Laurence has achieved #Steem God Status in my eyes <3 <3 What a guy! Most people would be really upset by this kind of beginning of their steemit journey.

I left bern that comment because he continues to flag my posts even though all my votes come from my followers unlike him and his continual self circle-jerk. If I self-vote, there's a +50% chance that it's to counteract that imbecile.

For the past month or so, I've only been flagging his comments (which are usually mean remarks to other steemians). Also, I made sure to only strip his monetary rewards and not flag into invisibility like he likes to do to others.

My gloves are off now though ...

I’ve seen you flag many of his comments which were not mean at all.. actually quite the opposite, which I did bring to your attention in case it was by accident... seems you knew exactly what you were doing.

And where was the defender of the blockchain when heimindanger was attacking innocent girls? 🤔 Seems like an odd person to start a war over.. I could think of much better, and more productive things to do on this blockchain.. but that would mean you would have to admit you are not a God.. and just human like the rest of us.

Hope you have a wonderful thanksgiving

Good examples

These are just recent, I know of a few others personally that Bernie never asked for credit or thanks.

I lost FTG witness vote because my bot was used by @berniesanders to make a post about him. Yet I had nothing to do with this fight. I've seen what FTG votes on, there are a lot of shit posters that he rewards with his "good bots". The hypocrisy is real.

It's a shame these two are fighting against each other rather than trying to keep the platform alive and thriving.

The "black and white" vision here is legendary. No one has the ability to see past one tiny angle of any situation.

@themarkymark thanks for pointing out that bot army belongs to full time geek. I was not aware of that. I have wondered what was behind all these horrible anti vaccine posts getting huge upvotes form these fulltimebots, I didn't make the connection. Witness vote for fulltimegeek removed

there are a lot of shit posters

Please elaborate. If I agree, I'll change up my blessed list.

You know brother, I've been avoiding getting into the middle of this fight, because I believe my energy is best spent trying to be a positive element in people's life. But, it pains me to see this battle scaling, and not only that, getting to the point where people are forgetting there are humans behind the avatars.

I'm not here to say so and so is right, so and so is wrong. I don't want my words to be perceived as someone who is judging. Who am I after all? But, I do know one thing.

Violence in the name of peace is paradoxical, hate in the name of love is also paradoxical.

I would love nothing more than to see you guys shake hands and stop this, maybe not because you both agree on things, but because both of you have shown the potential to be great forces of good before, and both of you have inspired Steemians to care about this blockchain in your own ways.

This might be the last comment I make about this, because It's not really my place... it's just hard for me not to say my peace.

I hope both of you have a pleasant day with your loved ones. happy thanksgiving.

@meno

Making sure you keep all upvotes coming in from all parties parties happy eh Meno. So typical of you.

I feel like most of your comments (especially the one above) here show your true actions. You don’t want to have a discussion, you don’t want facts. In every response to me you tell me not to bring up past things, then you yourself bring up something not related. Then come off so combative to most here, even if they came here respectfully.

I don’t know you and I try not to judge anyone I don’t know.. but this very much feels like you are stirring the pot for attention.. especially because immediately after you put out a post asking for delegation.. it just feels a bit off. I hope I’m wrong though.

I hope it’s because you are passionate about this place and want to see a change made.. we could definitely relate to each other on that point if that is in fact the truth. Our ways of making change just seem to be a bit different.

I don’t find that this post has helped anything and has not explained anything.. and yes I watched the video before commenting. I feel it has stirred up drama.. which some here have admitted that is exactly what they wanted.

I disagree with the way you have been spoken to here, but I also disagree with your actions and words as well.

Maybe you and I could try to have a one on one conversation sometime and see if we do have that passion for this place in common.. if so, and if we both truly want to see things be better. Maybe we could somehow work together to make them happen. But to me, posts like this do the opposite.

I’m on discord if you ever wanna chat.

I answered you as to why I call @fulltimegeek a BLOCKCHAIN DEFENDER, and I even gave you a link and screenshot, as well as wrote you a pretty long letter. Did you see that response @llfarms?

I'm gonna speak plainly here. And you probably won't like it, nor will a few others.

All you guys care about is your short term upvotes.

You don't like these disputes because it cuts into your profits.

You can’t convince someone who feels they’re never wrong.

Just so everyone’s clear, I did stop my flagging until I realized @fulltimegeek did not.

Happy Thanksgiving @meno.

Just so everyone’s clear, I did stop my flagging until I realized @fulltimegeek did not.

Have I ever flagged your supporters like you do to me? Also, when exactly did you stop flagging? I find that laughable.

You don’t like my strategy?

I stopped flagging you and those you support, not flagging in general (and never will).

Well, I'm just catching up, why did you flag the post about Brian? Sheesh.

Be happy to but it won’t be today as it is Thanksgiving and I am mostly on mobile for the day. I have been told a few as I hear discussions and looked myself a few times.

OK, send me over that list of shit posters when you have the time. And please do it publicly on the blockchain.

old and busted meme

I am bored now.

I lost FTG witness vote because my bot was used by @berniesanders

hmmm ... lemme guess ... does bernie currently vote for your witness? Conflict of interest much?

Also, if you want the job of checking every single one of bernie's comments and filtering out the good ones from the bad ones, lemme know. Until then, I will flag all his comments (with rewards) because they are usually insults to other steemians.

hmmm ... lemme guess ... does bernie currently vote for your witness? Conflict of interest much?

Not at all. Unlike most people on steem I am not black and white. I have the power of thought. While Bernie has a rough exterior he is the first person to step up and help someone in need. When I had to deal with abusers and scammers he was the first one to step up and flag them. No one is perfect but I vote him specifically for those reasons. His vote for me is in no way in response to mine as I never asked for a vote from him neither him mine.

I have a ton of respect for you in how you gave away so much of your stake freely. Which I have personally told you but you don’t really give me the time of day as I run a bot which you have so elegantly told me a few times. Which I respect and never once asked you for a vote or cried when you removed it 3-4 times.

I don’t trade votes most witnesses know that of me.

May you both have a happy things given

Look at how he ignores everything else, for he is Steemit’s savior...

oh wow .. reading this response is quite a disappointment tbh...

Blockchain Defender: @fulltimegeek's downvote stats for @haejin

Screen Shot 2018-11-22 at 3.10.51 PM.png

https://steemit.com/stewardsofgondor/@flagawhale/flagawhale-heroes-fulltimegeek-s-haejin-downvote-stats

This is just one small example of the many ways he has helped curb abusive behaviour on this platform, and it's all stemming from the same issue again. FTG flagged @haejin because @haejin used to do the exact same thing @berniesanders is doing, flagging innocent users. Flagging people just because he didn't like what they said to him, or because they were friends of someone he didn't like.

@fulltimegeek spent the better part of a year using all his voting power on downvotes dealing with @haejin. He didn't have side scams going on where he could still stack STEEM. He sacrificed tens of thousands of dollars he could easily just take for himself, and instead used that to help innocent Steemians, and protect the health of our fragile ecosystem.

How does his cock feel in your mouth?

That’s your opinion. I flag trash, and that’s my opinion. You think I’m doing harm. I think they’re doing harm.

Oh come on Bernie, that’s enough

All she’s doing is jerking him off to get votes and attention. Sorry for calling it like it is.

Nice attempt to derail the facts. Your guys' usual tactic as I've seen.

Everyone, just watch my video. It's plain speak.

In what way did I derail facts? What I said was factual.. show me where I am incorrect? I did watch your video, and it’s why I commented here. Not sure what guys you’re referring to.. I haven’t joined any cult here.. how about you?

  ·  6 years ago Reveal Comment

I never said that is why the conflict began.. I’m very aware of how this began and saw it happen real time. Doesn’t change what I said.. you stated ftg is the defender of the blockchain, so he had to act. I was simply asking if that was true, where was he when heim was attacking innocent people. Why would one start a war of this magnitude to defend someone who should have been flagged by ftg himself?

So, still.. I was not derailing facts.. just simply adding additional facts to this conversation.

You’re arguing with a flat earther...

Nope, just having an adult conversation and sharing my difference of opinion 😉

show me where I am incorrect?

Show me where I said I was a God first.

Yes, “facts” according to someone who believes the Earth is flat.

Moron.

And where was the defender of the blockchain when heimindanger was attacking innocent girls?

A better question is, where were YOU when bernie flagged all the following civilians that I had to HEAL MYSELF?

bernie-victims.png

I can't even fit the entire list in one screenshot! The idiot is flagging people willy-nilly and morons like you DEFEND HIM? God help us!

Wow look at that full list of fucking whack jobs. Look at their posts and you’ll see why they were flagged, they’re all flat earth, alien intruder believing whack jobs. Just like @fulltimegeek. Fucking retard.

Find the edge of your flat earth and walk off. Oh wait, it’s not flat.

I wasn’t actually defending him.. I was saying your statement was incorrect (please reread my above statement).. and that you are not completely innocent in this.

I was curating all those people..along with many more.. doing my best to make a positive impact on this community.

Bernie does good things for this place.. he’s a bit too nasty for my taste sometimes.. but I can see the things he does, and think he is an asset here.

What I did notice about you though is while I came here with a respectful comment that disagreed.. you immediately felt the need to call me names. So, like I said.. I think there are more productive things to do here..

while I came here with a respectful comment

you would have to admit you are not a God

Why did you add that statement? When did I say I was a God?

  ·  6 years ago (edited)

You’re right, I’ll admit that was maybe uncalled for. What I have seen though is an individual who will not admit he is wrong and has a bit of a god complex (like many others here), stating that you are here to defend the blockchain but only actually doing things that effect your close circle.

For the record, I also think you do some good things here too.. and quite frankly, don’t understand this recent war and your defending of an individual that does not deserve defending. Being able to admit when one is wrong, make a change, and move on is a pretty amazing thing.. hopefully you both can do so and we as a community can unite.

You’re right, I’ll admit that was maybe uncalled for.

I'm sorry for my name calling as well.

For the record, I also think you do some good things here too.. and quite frankly, don’t understand this recent war

It's better to understand something then to go off on your feelings before leaving a comment. My #1 objective is to attract more people to the Steem blockchain while bernie's is to scare them away. A quick look at his account(s) activity should be enough proof that I'm not lying to you.

  ·  6 years ago (edited)

I feel I have a pretty good understanding of both of your actions here.. I’m not one to go off on an emotional tangent and I believe my comments here prove that. I just disagree with the context and feel it’s important to have a discussion involving all the facts, not just some.

I’m more intelligent and more knowledgeable about the inner workings of this place then maybe my accounts leads one to believe.. one thing that anyone can see though is that I put my heart and soul into this place and am committed to make it better.

Also, I have no problem calling out any account.. no matter what size, if they are in the wrong. As I’ve done this to Bernie as well.. I have no blind ties to anyone, rather will fight for this community until the end.

And what I see right now, is two individuals hurting this place who should be the ones helping it. Hopefully you take some time to think about that.. and maybe have a simple discussion with Bernie.. I know he said he was willing.. hell I’ll bring the coffee and cookies to get the party started.

Much Love and Steem on,

Justine

You’re right, I do drive away the whack jobs that never buy any Steem and leech rewards. That ain’t gonna stop. Whack jobs like you should be dealt with.

That’s because he’s a hypocrite. Plain and simple.

At least I own up to having fun and being an asshole.

Keep in mind @fulltimegeek also believes the Earth is flat and hosts aliens inside it. That should give you an idea of who you’re dealing with.

Without him you’d still be a random nobody. Keep an eye on your posts on day 7.

And you wouldn't even exist if it wasn't for the name you stole from a REAL person.

#FeelTheBern

Uh what? That makes literally NO sense, kinda like you believing the Earth is flat.

I’m not sure who Bernies Anders is but they must be popular.

Love You <3

Edit because you did:

I don't give a shit about my posts.

Kisses!

I thought you and @berniesanders where buddies.

He has spiraled out of control and is no longer sane.

I see we have another victim of the communist dictator. I'll make sure my bots heal this comment as much as possible ...

no worries ftg, just wanted to make a point on the psychology of insults, it's actually a pretty interesting read if your into psyche. It's a shame that folks can't have a good solid debate in which there is no room for insults and belief bashing.

You’re falling for it.

She's just trying to say what's right.

87 comments later and this is why we can't have nice things on steem....

Move on its really that simple...

@lindsaybowes.. I think you have succeeded here in achieving 100 percent of absolutely nothing positive. I look at some of these comments here and feel like I've walked into a skanky middle school locker room. This might as well be Facebook.

I am hoping you'll see that the reaction to your bait here has been nothing but a childish shitstorm of insults from some of the most potentially beneficial forces of nature on the blockchain.

I hope you recognize the failure here on your part and kindly refrain from pulling stunts like this in the future.

I also believe in love. I see none of it here from you. I believe Meno's peaceful comment summed up everything perfectly.

Chill out.

Serena

Thank you for spending your time, reading all of the comments, and adding your opinion.

Yep! I'm pretty dumb with my time on holidays. I also earlier spent about 20 minutes staring at spider on the wall, wondering what it might be doing later while I'm sleeping.

you're not alone xD

Congratulations @lyndsaybowes!

Not to make light of the situation, but it would be great if @fulltimegeek and @berniesanders could duel it out on the Steem Monsters battlefield. Both are supporters of Steem Monsters, so why not take this disagreement there? Each person pick a charity/cause to donate their winnings. It would be a compromise and truce between the two parties.

Also, the Steem community could get involved by "loaning" their cards to the person they side with and watching the battle being duked out on the battlefield. No one has to invest anything to level up their cards. If any Steemian wants to support a side, we loan our cards simply to see the person win.

A truce is reached, the charity receives a prize, and no one is further harmed on the blockchain. Any actions taken after the fact would be cause for the two to disagree again, if they so choose.

Just an idea...maybe @yabapmatt could make it possible.

The enemy of my enemy is my ...

It would be great if bernie and tfg could get together and make a list of Steemians they both believe are abusing the pool, and work together. Not everyone will see eye to eye on every poster / issue / thing - but Steem Monsters is certainly the perfect battlefield for it to be settled on! :D

FTG is pretty active, and I know bernie has a good collection of cards, too.

I said a while ago everytime they felt like flagging each other they upvote a helpienaut.

  ·  6 years ago (edited)

I know both are invested in the Steem blockchain in their own ways. It would be a win/win for everyone if they do decide to compromise and duke it out on the SM battlefield. It will bring hype to the game and possibly a means to settling some disputes (outside of flagging).

I know both have a good collection of cards but they might not have everything, i.e., the KS cards. And here is where we Steemians come in as participators/supporters. We pick our side, loan our cards, and know that we are helping to settle a flagging dispute on the blockchain. Plus the charity wins, and we have gripping entertainment! 🙂

@lyndsaybowes, I am starting to watch this video. I think it is going to be interested. One guy told me about this dispute a month ago...

It's so bad people, that we spend time for shit like news media and violence in the internet and out.

This rant is coming from someone who believes aliens live within the Earth. (ie. she rides the short bus)

Enough said.

You know the one thing I believe in, like really fucking believe in...?

Love.

Totally adorbs.

@lyndsaybowes, interesting video. Now, I know where the dispute come from. Do you have Discord?

Btw, I don't like when Steemians have some kind of disputes between them. I don't like flagging as well. At the very beginning of my journey on Steem blockchain one whale flagged me all the time. My reputation dropped from 25 to 23, or 22, or 21 in the very beginning of my journey. It was so unpleasant.. I am against misunderstandings between Steemians.

Thanks! I sent you a friendship request.
