RE: I Should Be Writing About Gaining 1000 Followers - Instead I Have To Address A Bigger Issue

in #abuse7 years ago (edited)

This is very sad and upsetting. With all the positive effects of decentralization, there's also the negative effect that such a horrible troll can carry on hurling abuse on other users..I saw that this guy attacked @uwelang as well, but not as deeply personally as to you..

I am very sorry that your children and family had to suffer such an uncalled for attack. It's only natural that you're like a mother tigress coming out to defend her cubs!

I'm glad you're ranting here though..hopefully it is one avenue for you to let out all that anger and rage..those will only injure you if you hold it in..

Sort:  

I'm so glad that this is being stated to the community. It's important for us to be aware of abusers like this on here. We are only as fast as our slowest person with it comes to growth. This sort of user will ultimately invite more cruel verbal attacks if don't call them out on it.

Yep and with this particular user, he tends to act out attack a bunch of people and then play the victim and get a new wave of support from those who don't know any better.

Such manipulative and superficial behaviour..urghh..

Yes, this totally goes against the ideology of Yunk..if I got it right :)

Lol I like your wording with -

It's only natural that you're like a mother tigress coming out to defend her cubs!

Yeah I agree I came out swinging, he triggered me (probably the only way to trigger me honestly) - my goal is to vent and move on with my life.

But steemit needs to find a way to deal with this sort of user in the future, as we grow it will only become harder and things like this need to have consequences that actually impact the person.

haha that's the image that was invoked in my mind while reading through your text.. :))

Your goal is a good one..it will help that your husband is actively rallying through and trying to come up with a solution..yes, I really hope that he will not go scot-free and face some sort of penalty for his atrocious behaviour..

You are right that as we grow, it will get harder and harder to nip these kind of abuse in the bud..sighs..
