Steemit took down @thedarkoverlord

I couldn't write it better my self. If I would have thousands of SP I would use it to flag NSFW, spam and similar garbage. I wouldn't use it on thoughts not aligned to mine. But that's just me thinking how grownups should act.

With lots of SP, my primary concern would be material that could get all of us into legal trouble; either through law-suits or a government looking for another excuse to regulate. Other than that, everyone is at liberty to ignore or mute posts and content creators they don't like and create their own utopian or dystopian world.

Spam, NSFW, and other garbage is not my problem, I have the choice to ignore it. People abusing the reward pool is not my problem either. If the developers thought it was a problem they should have fixed it but didn't. There must be a reason for that :)

Thank you for the transfer! :)

In the spirit of lucylin. I also resteemd that post :)

This something I've done repeatedly when people got flagged. Including the message: "It wasn't his vote to take."

I doubt I can keep that up when the flagging gets intense though. Consider it support for future as my vote is only 0.04.

Take care :)

Flagging was directly created to deal with people abusing their stake. It's in the whitepaper. People have as much of a right to curate things as no value or negative value as they do to curate things as valuable. If you think that ignoring or muting abusive content such as FUD is sensible, next time some violation occurs to you or your loved ones I expect you to ignore it also, so that especially when people flag FUD you ignore them, regardless if you considered it FUD or not, else you have no right to ask people do what you yourself failed at doing.

FUD deserves all the flags it gets, as does Spam or slander.

Btw, grownups ask "Why are you asking stupid questions"? It must be grown up to call me an ass kisser and talk about the extent of my abilities, and it must also be Grown Up to persistently defend a misleading diagram and call people stupid while repeatedly making indications about their ability to comprehend.
