This is not the first time, and I was partly "dragged" into it. Months ago I was approached by @onomzy001 who strangely adopted me as his mentor without asking me first and praised me into heaven in one of his posts.
I was mentioned everywhere and he kept begging and telling sad stories and asking me for Steem and help to improve his writing.
In the meanwhile he "wrote" al kind of stories, also let other write for him and suddenly I wasn't his mentor but the one who "introduced him" and also was a curator recently. They are best friends.

While I was trying to help onomzy001 he was using @patjewell which I noticed so we had contact out of steemit and she he's a lost case because he cannot even use markdowns and do the most simple things (I gave him the codes so that was strange).

At the time I said I had it with Student & Steem a community @onomzy001 started and again pulled me in (made me moderator without my knowledge) I contacted the "only" moderator and told him to have a look because of all the nonsense admin onomzy001 wrote and said (this moderator is the same person who moderated in africanonsteem and recently in knack4buzz).

Onomzy felt the need to leave moderating reports although he's being caught and labelled by several communities for plagiarism and use of AI. I told him that it was ridiculous and he better work on writing himself instead of lecturing others.

BTW this already started as I was moderating in knack4buzz where I tried to help him but it all was a waste of time since as it came to it he kept repeating the same behaviour and refused to listen and became aggressive as he didn't get what he wanted.

I told him many times I was no longer willing to help him and to stop the community which he thought could continue if he would give it a different name (which he did). The last thing I heard from him was that he would prove he would change. Well, I heard that for at least six months... Recently I saw him begging again for being a moderator. He is clearly not the smartest around since he always asks communities which recently started or those who are not interested in moderators and the founder only wants to write and grow.

If it comes to the account I checked it as he asked me for money because he told me someone asked him for Steem (only 2 or so) he had to pay off otherwise he would be beaten up and that account looked strange to me. I believe I let someone have a look at it to see where the money flows all in the same pot but we weren't sure if it was used as an account for one person to change the steem for a bigger group because they weren't able to (like I knew many did during those first years of Steemit).

Next onomzy001 told me he is harassed at school blah blah blah and later threatened by @mesola and he knows her and her son. They are in the same whatsoever but according to him they don't live in the same region (which can be a compound as well).

Onomzy001 came with the story that @mesola said to him he would never receive an upvote from sc01 and sc02 because she knew them (no idea if that's true but back then I didn't find it hard to believe they all threaten one another as if it's a normal thing to do). I believe I did pay those Steem to an account onomzy001 gave me I believe I paid with hive-169911 to the account he mentioned.

What more fun I have to tell about my journey on Steemit?

I "met" mesola again as she suddenly became moderator at knack4buzz. She was on a tour to as communities to moderate and kicked out of the community health .. had a nasty, unfriendly attitude towards the other moderators, close to rude, as she joined the telegram group. Unlike others she didn't post one post per week (on the day that we moderated) and there was something else that I didn't understand. As we all were present and the schedule was announced who to moderate when mesola was present but... a bit of time later she didn't seem to remember when to moderate and what to do (this was before the SC account was hacked and the key was changed - August 2024?).

This is what I think: they all are connected and the moderating, curating and writing by mesola was never done by one person. No way she had time and opportunity, let alone the knowledge to do it all alone. Also what she posted had different writing styles and there were topics she has no knowledge about. Like she wrote in her post "i am so sorry my son did it" she doesn't even know how to open an e-mail account.

BTW first time I noticed mesola was on the noise list where she had the highest score and I contacted the one who made it and wanted to know why those using AI to generate answers had the highest score. I also asked to take my name off the list which he refused but after talking up and down I ignored and had my peace till I bumped in into it ntoo to long ago and noticed @saintkelvin17 has a high place on it (very surprising and I wonder how this can be since I typing off my finger/thumb and 24/7 and seem to be one of the losers who hardly makes it).

Above is the story in short and all I know is that everyone lies and they all find it a normal thing to do and it leaves me with only one question which is: Is this what is taught in church and Christianity is about? Since that is what I hear them all talk about next to the bad situation they have to deal with.

If you want my opinion @the-gorilla this is it: fake, fooled, scammed, abuse.

Do I feel pity for one of them? The answer is no. I gave each one of them more than 1 chance and they keep lying straight into my face.

@chriddi I like that story and hope that those who do follow the rules will hear this too since a handful of rotten apples attract way too much attention.

Merry days to you.
