My First Bad Experience with Steemit

in steemit •  8 years ago  (edited)

Fyrstikken. THE FIRST SOCIOPATH ON STEEMIT. A dude who gave 20 million dollars to Peruvians, but start promoting personal hate on steemit chat. While a multi-millionair he acts like 1000 dollars is worth his reputation by using disgusting words. Reaching 10 million people in a country of 30 million is another obvious lie that is impossible. Reaching one third of a population on tv is like doing better than the best tv-programs.

I can't believe the people on Steemit would reward his post/behavior.

And "The beauty about steemit is we can all have different views" is just your excuse to not even consider the views of the rest of us!

Get off your high horse!

yep, my very first post on Steemit was about the flat earth discussion. it got down voted by some asshole without any comment. Why are people like that? I mean if you really feel so strongly about a post to INITIATE HARM against their reputation (i know you "anarchists" believe words are meaningless and feelings can never be harmed), at least have the guts to say why... and no weak sauce statements like "it is inappropriate" or "i don't like it". Use your big boy/girl words and actually give everyone a valid reason for your down vote. If it is worth down voting, it is worth an explanation. I assume you all want this venue to grow and not collapse under the weight of assholes? Prove it!

Oh and thanks for telling me how to down vote stuff. i had no idea it was the flag up top. i only used it once against a very vulgar and explicit post. Glad i did it but i should have said why. From now on, i will say why.

Correction: people who have invested in the platform by way of steempower upvoted him. Not in any way all of them, but it should show all the good people out there that powering up instead of cashing put and helping oneanother can do a lot of good. Fyrstikken has many people who he hangs out with trading "shitcoins" and it is pretty obvious that he can get them to upvote him and get them to respond in his threads and support him in various ways. There is nothing keeping others from doing the same.

Indeed, just like with every truly free system, people are forced to act to protect good people in the moments they believe in the cause, or risk being overrun by corruption. Synereo will not fix this about humanity. Steem "fixing" it will not ultimately ever 100% happen.

And ultimately Flagging is not that big an issue for people who build/participate on steem based sites that have steem as a backend and different reputation systems/better solutions.
The system is so new it is hard to tell how people will use it, but ultimately our freedom comes with these risks. At least with dan, he gave people an incentive to stick around to work on problems as opposed to simply dumping everything they have at the first sight of difficulty (read opportunity for growth).
