Cheers Steve. Yeah, I had Theresa pop up on one of my posts and didn't know if it was just spam, but see she has posted various comments now. You have a small typo with steembasicincoMe (an 'n' not 'm' at the end).
Thanks for the proofreading. I enjoy some of the spoof accounts here. Humour is very hard to get right. I expect you have seen @lordvader already.
No I hadn't… but I'm following now! Yeah, humour is tricky and subjective but brightens the place up a bit ;)
i went and up-voted all of your posts that got flagged a couple of days back, i am with you in the this whole situation

Thanks for that. I've had great support from so many people, but I'm wary that there are people here who can just take away all my rewards again. That just seems mean when they are making so much. Such is the wild west of Steemit.
Glad you're managing to keep focusing on the positive @steevc. I admire your resilience. Your made of stronger stuff than I am I think! 😊
I'm not going to let a few nasty people spoil my experience here. If you stay out of their fights they should ignore you. I just got pushed too far.
That's what I've been doing - staying out of their fights @steevc. But I felt a bit bad not speaking up on your post but I am seriously scared of getting wiped out. I was very pissed off that my votes on your posts were "wasted" from a monetary point of view. It's the first time I've been indirectly directly affected, if you see what I mean!
I don't want people to be scared of speaking or even showing some support for their friends.
Me neither but as things are there are a lot of us keeping our heads below the parapet. I suppose it's inevitable when there's such an uneven distribution of power.
I've read a couple of things the last couple of weeks which demonstrate, that even some of the good guys, have no idea what it's like to be "small" nowadays.
Just wrote a post about positivity (possibly sounding rather grumpy and negative). But I agree. Not much to be accomplished by fighting hysterical people with superior power. Creating and communicating in a positive way is the best way.
You can't reason with some people. They seem to have gone power mad
Indeed.
Hi @steevc. We just started a #FollowFriday in the DACH Region (That's Germany, Austria and the german speaking part of Switzerland). Thanks for the inspiration.
Cheers from Vienna :)
Hi again.... It's kind of working in the #german community :)
https://steemit.com/created/followfriday Thanks again!!
I agree with you 1000%. There is so much that is going on with this blockchain that is going to make it one of the leading chains that people are getting caught up over the spats. The future of STEEM, as dragosoura pointed out in his latest posts, is top 10. The technical specs of this technology means that it can handle what is put on it. Also, since it has no direct fees, it works for microtransactions. This is huge.
The development on here is incredible. Each day something new is introduce...an application that has great potential. Yet many want to focus upon what is wrong.
I think a large portion of it is the fact that people focus upon Steemit as if it is STEEM. STEEM is much more than just steemit although that is still the main application.
Just followed @lloyddavis. Checked his last few posts and the guy definitely has a great range of diversity in his posts. I can see him posting stuff that would keep us interested for a good long while. That kind of thing is what makes your feed interesting.
Thanks for the info man!
Cool. Feel free to ask him questions. He's very helpful. I've met him several times and he's always a delight.
Thanks. Will keep that in mind :-)
I think that not only steemit but the world in general needs active people but from the positive point of view, it is a good way to contribute our bit.
