Steemit FLAG hurts both ways, and even more, use MUTE instead

This video I discuss how dealing with haters takes valuable voting power away from my loyal followers



Light(now) is true clarity, and darkness is imagination.

Believing is to have doubt(can go either way), so believing is automatically false. I know now is true, no believing required.

I am the perfect reflection of perfection.

I totally agree with your idea of muting people that bother you in any way. I have only been here a week and I have muted about 5 people. I have followed over 300.

I join with any person on any platform without thinking twice. I am equally quick to mute, if I do not like what I see, and I don't give a warning or discuss it, or give it another thought later. It's just another person on the internet, so I don't care enough to bring myself down.

I do not think I will ever flag. It's not my nature. I have blocked 1000's of people in my six years on the internet [you should see my fb block list] and I think I have reported maybe 5. It's just not worth my effort unless safety is involved.

I'm glad to hear your story - it makes me more firm in my resolve. I would be upset to see my strength used in that way. Thank you. Upvoted and ReSteemed; I was already following :)

Meh... don't waste your time on haters Craig. There's no point.

I love how you simply and honestly talk about everything.

thank u for this video Craig I have been feeling this, going threw this and watching trying to figure out a solution to this issue

Been a LOT of flagging going on lately....

Sounds good. Still didn't use the mute option...

Oldskool jeans!

Is it possible to flag yourself?

Holy crap... it IS possible to flag yourself (just looked, well, at least the flags there - just not willling to test it any further).
Thanks for a bit of comic relief, needed it.

thanks for sharing

It's all about being positive, no need for negativity here at Steem!

Go Craig go

really nice...

I never flagged anybody but I was flagged for 1 or 2 times by a troll, named @asshole, though there was no reason.

Looks like s/he drain their account. I guest there is no money to be made in flagging.

Get your paper fuck the hater

yes its hurts it hurts too much . let me tell you story once upon a time i was using my steemit blog a person flagged me for fake reputation then i replied to his comment then he posted my aggresive comment in a post that day he earned so many sbds i was angry about that flag that's why i made a mistake of commenting :(

Really nice royal fire and I agree with you 100%!

I was just considering the use of Flagging over the past few days. Your presentation reminded me of the words of the Buddha, "Holding onto anger is like holding onto a burning coal expecting to through it at somebody else." The same can be said for throwing around angry comments...and flagging. After this I see muting makes so much more sense. Thanks for the info!

Great content. Had to resteem it.

Craig, don't listen to this latest troll minnow that blew in on the wind - they come, they mew, they go ... and the flow carries on my friend .... :)

I got your point completly, but if there is plagiarism or tag abuse or whatever how can someone get punished by not flagging them? I mean if they are muted that's fine but they won't learn from their actions or am i seeing things wrong? I'm also looking at this problem as a 'minnow' so my votingpower doesn't actually mean anything, and I absolutly agree that you better can turn your head instead of letting pointless argueing influence your day especially when that person is just trying to fight by posting negative content.. But there are some rules that has to be respected and when it comes to that point i think flagging is a good system.. although taking away of your votingpower by flaggin is something that the developers should take out of the system, but that is just what i think.

Thanks for sharing! A link to your post was included in the Steem.center wiki page about Flag. Thanks and good luck again!

And that's how a community works!

nice video & post
thank you for sharing

Nice job here. Keep it up

It is just jealousy.

Fuck the haters. Y'all need to start wearing colors and flashing steem hand signs

@craig-grant That #throwback is so REAL.. Everyone wanted one of those bomber jackets and looka there.. who's rocking one! Besides, NOW we all see what your head looks like without all your natural growing glory.

Down with haters! :)

"This person, who's only been here a few days, had a Rep of 50... until I flagged him 4 times, now this person's Rep is 3 (and those 4 flags killed my voting power.... hmmmmm)." How does a negative person in the wrong get to a Rep of 50 in just a few days?
Laughable. Nothing here has yet to explain my position and opinions are wrong. If anything, this and your "Lets fk the world and burn a bunch of plastic!" video does nothing but support my theories and accusations.
Y'all should be thinking about getting as far away from @craig-grant as possible. I don't think you don't want your loved ones sending you soap on a roap in your future "home".
