RE: Why is the Steem Price Low? How Do We Fix It?
I think I am one of the biggest proponent of what I call negative curation (flags/downvotes) as a way to improve efficiency of content curation. The main problem with flags is that they don't happen enough and people get startled when they get a big one.
If you'd like to engage in a voice debate about the subject I could make myself available. You can find me on discord.
BTW, In your video you ask us to check back at the trending to see many example of unfair flagging. I looked back at least 5 pages (7 day back) to see any significant amount of flagging. Most post have zero flags, do you think it's normal to have 2000 upvotes on a post and and not get a single downvote?
Have a look for yourself, this UI show flagging of 5$ or more, Nothing is flagged. https://steem-sincerity.dapptools.info/trending-analysis
@transisto I would love to see a back and forth with large Steemians like you and @jerrybanfield. I will be here on STEEMIT no matter what other people do and power down and leave. I am just a little guy that tries very hard to put up some content each day. Thank you for what you do and others do to make STEEMIT a great place to be.
@JerryBanfield would dominate because he is use to public speaking and is actually a user of steem. From what I can tell @transisto is someone who mined steem early on. Now he just runs a voting bot and downvotes.
Spot on!!! Dont fall asleep...it's a scheme, a setup to lurk us minnows from our money...
Dude, he even sells his upvotes, why not give it to content creators.
Why not sell his steem and invest in another coin?
Why does having money mean someone owes it to give to you?
Many investors in cryptocurrency to save and invest their money. Not even sure why some of the big whales stay on this site when all they get is hate.
I can't answer that question,
but jerry banfield already faced some of these issues
@transisto : I am completely at loss to understand why my posts are being flagged by upmyvote. All pictures and text is original from my recent travel. It is this reason I have reservations about flag options
You seem to be suffering from dissociative identity disorder. Don't worry, I take these illnesses seriously and will not judge you.
Remember that day you decided to boost a form of plagiarism to the trending page, then got caught? Do you remember, about twelve hours ago, how you were acting confused about these flags so I reminded you of this incident? That comment is near the bottom of this comment section.
I personally believe once you come to terms with the fact you screwed up that day and stop blocking it from your memory, you'll find yourself feeling a lot less confused about this situation. From there you'll realize you're not actually a victim of anything other than the consequences of your own actions. Then, maybe, you'll stop harassing people and all flags will cease because showing signs of honesty and integrity should never be considered behavior worthy of a flag.
Good luck to you, sir.
Haha I have no idea about this story I just wanted to say that was an amazingly written response. Poetic even. haha
I'm not speaking for the particular situation which I have zero knowledge but just the life concepts!!
You are waking up the users with your clarity using words...thats not allowed...
Why do you ask me? I'm not the one who flagged your post.
This is in reference to the discussion in the post - I wanted my opinion to come to yr attention as u said u are flag supporter.
I think flagging is a double edged sword if used excessively and unchecked then it may have unwanted results.
There should be an active monitoring to see if posts are being flagged for no obvious violation but revenge or other malicious intentions
Just my opinion
