Did I insult you for no reason or did I insult you because you were being abusive towards me?
I have given you some recent downvptes for posts/comments that I felt were abusive.
I currently have no intentions of ever visiting your blog except to perhaps frovide you with things like a legal notice but I think I will try and do that with your comments instead if I do need to provide you with any information.
I think some if not many of your recent comments could be construed as bulkying in a court of law. I think you should consider reviewing and possible editing or modifying them. If you do edit or modify them please let me know so that I can review any downvotes I may have given you.
You insulted/slandered me for no reason, and I have proof. Proof that you tried to tamper with the evidence as well.
I'm not modifying anything at this point. The only modifications I've done are spelling errors. I have proof you slandered me and tried to cover your tracks. I have the block data saved on my computer, so do what you need to do, but you are not going to prosecute me. You have no grounds. You slandered and harassed me. I defended myself against your abuse. So fuck off, or get me some kind of court order.

This is really hard for me as I have followed mysearchisover for quite some time plus I have no disagreements or have had reason(s) to dislike some people involved in flagging as it is true the trending page was out of control, you also can't disagree with going after spammers, abusers, etc., and I will admit most of the times I upvoted while joking around with msio his post at those moments were usually less than a buck or two. I did't not realize the extent of his boosting to higher amounts later for small amount of content, I never thought to look and it appeared rare a post exceeded more than five, ten dollars. I don't think I could have agreed with that as a ongoing thing...like I said I was not paying that much attention. Prior to that I did joke around a lot with him how he managed to escape detection when so many others doing the same thing, posting small amount of content for small amounts, didn't.
With that said, unless you can come up with something you have screen shot more than three days ago showing you he insulted/slandered you for no reason then what you are saying is not true unless you insulting/slandering someone is excusable just by means they were not playing by the rules, which in that case you'd have to admit the names you called him and the slander against him also applies to what you term your many, many good people here on steem. You called him a parasite, you also called him a snake, and to add insult to injury you compared what he was doing as the same thing as a woman being raped. I find a statement like that as going to the extreme. There's no comparison what so ever and it's an insult to every woman who has ever gone through such an experience.
So if there was something more going on prior I'd like to see it, otherwise I think you owe him an apology.

Hi @sunlit7,
I can admit that I used a pretty extreme analogy in regards to turning a blind eye to abuses. I can understand how this might be shocking to some, but was in response to being told I should turn a blind eye (mute) things I see that I don't agree with. There is much of this attitude in the real world as well, while people are being murdered, raped, tortured, ect, and it is logical to assume indeed, that turning a blind eye does not make things stop or disappear, and so this was the basis of choosing an extreme based analogy. I do apologize if this analogy was offensive to you or anyone else reading.
I was also enduring growing fonts and all caps, a perception of being yelled at,(as this is commonly agreed as yelling in text, and caused increased stress during the situation) whilst having my intellect insulted by mysearchisover.
Some of his edits/deletions are posted on my blog where he was trolling me, as well as comments he made on multiple different posts reporting me for what he felt was abuse, and I do not see the need to provide anyone with proof or take the time to extract data for anyone here of his attempted cover ups, when they can do it themselves if it is really that important to verify.
I am sorry to anyone who this may have caused stress for, but I really am not sorry to mysearchisover for defending my position against his trolling. Might have some of the things I said been a bit extreme or over the top on this post, yes, was mysearchisover's trolling and continual harassment towards me over the top as well? Yes I think it was.
As stated on my blog where he was trolling me, all of my downvotes were on posts/comments which he boosted, which myself and many others agree is an abuse to the economics of our system, and it is nothing personal or censorship based at all. He claimed this is a form of consorship, while downvoting every comment I wrote in response to his continual trolling. This seems very hypocritical to me. Even his trolling comments I did not downvote. All of this is verifiable via steemworld, and his edits/deletions can also be verified via downloading the block in which they were created on, and opening in a JSON editor. He also removed all of/or most of the downvotes after being called out for which was obvious hypocritical behavior/belief in what censorship is on the blockchain.
I'm not trolling him, and have no intention of downvoting anything of his, with the exception of boosted posts in the future, should he choose to boost. If you look at his blog, the consensus suggests the common mind here disagrees with his use of bid bots.
If I am to be sorry to anyone, I am sorry to @logiczombie for this tirade of argument on his/her post, and I am sorry to anyone who also experienced some stress as a result of this. I do think mysearchisover should take some accountability for his own actions that he tried to cover up, and then report me and extort removal of my downvotes with tactics which negated his own behavior and obvious reasoning for my downvotes, which had nothing to do at all with our disagreements, but rather my disagreements to bid bot use. I do not feel I owe him an apology, nor will I give him one.
That is all I have left to say on this matter, and I am sorry to you @sunlit7 if this caused you stress.

I was't stressed, sorry if I came off that way. I was following the situation closely from the beginning. My whole point was in the statement you gave him no reason to go off the rails but I found that to be otherwise, your hesitance in providing otherwise reinforces that as a possible truth. I am not going back to look to see if the caps thing came first or second to your insults as one I've spent to much time on this already and two I don't consider that a reason to call names. Today it looks as things are smoothing out a bit, he's usually an easy going type fellow. I understand with so much abuse going on some people find it rather hard to be forced to change their behavior while others aren't and/or others find creative ways to continue to abuse calling it legit. One other thing, I don't recall if it was you or someone else who said that upvoting of one's post was okay but not comments. I haven't viewed and have been looking for the revised version of the white paper but when I joined the white paper said upvoting of one's post or comments wasn't allowed. It's one of the main reason's I don't up vote my own post....not that a vote to myself would be worth anything....lol. Cheers!

You'd think that disabling the self-vote feature would be a no-brainer if it was frowned upon by the powers that be.

You could always use alts to self-vote, so it doesn't solve anything.
An interesting idea is to have some sort of decaying vote algorithm the more you vote on the same person consecutively.
But know people, it's just gonna be a sea of alts anyways.

I'm just sayin'.
I've been on some pretty low-budget forums where the upvotes have no monetary value, and even there you can't upvote your own posts or comments and they block multi-accounting based on your ip. And they have literally zero money.

I think you are confusing the auto voter and the upvote. Auto voter is when people set their votes to automatically go out to someone without regard to reading or participating/engaging upon what was posted. Can people set their auto voter to upvote themselves? I do not know nor have come across any mention of such a tactic so far. Ultimately though it wouldn't surprise me if such could happen. (lol) Upvoting one's post usually (from what I understand) is done similarly to how people upvote others post manually either by hitting the upvote tab and/or if they have their slide bar they can set a percentage of their vote to go to any particular vote including to themselves.

That's the crux's of it all, on those other platforms there's measures in place in the first place that don't allow or minimize the avenues to abuse. The reason they don't here is the fact it is monetary based set up by greedy individuals who you can't deny didn't see the opportunities open for abuse but still implemented them. Not only did they allow their implementation but they used them to their advantage and still do. There is a lot that can be fixed but they won't because it's been too beneficiary, that is why I won't help slap one hand while the other hand still has their hand in the cookie jar unless I see blatant outrageous abuse or a situation where it's evident the pot is calling the kettle black....in those instances I don't mind calling it out but I am not going to be a participator in being punitive towards one while seeing the same behaviors excused for others.

You cannot change anything on the blockchain. You purposely provoked and harassed me and I can prove it. That won't look too good on you in a court room when you are of the mind that you can "make things better," and "think" you are being bullied when I have asked you to stop harassing me.
You will continue to receive flags from me on bid botted posts/comments as per the agreement of the majority of stakeholders here as a behavior that is abusive to the economics of our blockchain, and you will receive no more comments from me, per the delusion that you "think" you are somehow being bullied.
EDIT: You will however, continue to receive my defense based comments on your false accusations you are spreading on different posts. This is a further example of your harassment.
I am going to ask you to stop messaging me once again, failure to do so will result in further violation of:
Article 240.30 Aggravated harassment in the second degree.
