How to fail at Steem, part XVII (or somethign like that)

I wouldn't expect @atempt and his 3 accounts to respond. He didn't when I called him out, though there's no doubt he will read this.

@crystallui however is a different breed and may do. The public conversation that they may or may not know we are all reading suggests that @atempt is recommending @crystallui powers down and gets out.

Maybe he has a brain after all, but only when he's suggesting ideas for others.

You'll note I didn't tag them, but now you have :) We shall see.

He (I assume) really does seem to be a most unpleasant individual.

What I find sad about atempt is that he (I assume) puts so much effort into effectively hating us - for me it averages out at around every 5-6 days.

I'm left wondering what 'sad little pathetic life they must lead' - that's a quote from a film or something I saw, but I can't remember where.

We can only do so much each of us. I wonder if the abusers are now powering down because of the proposed changes. I doubt that they read carefully enough to realise that they aren't going to be coming in any time soon, they're just being mooted for early discussion.

To be honest there are some people who I don't mind leaving Steem. We just do not need them.

I would have to agree that there is a fine line between what can be deemed quality and what can not. I think a lot of it will depend on behavior over time. Here is a great example: Dlike is a part of Steem that could be seen as "spammy". If I were only posting via dlike and buying huge upvotes for each of those posts it could be abuse. Posting every now and then with dlike shouldn't be a big deal though. Even though many of those posts lack original substance.

I like to see people at least show they put in some effort and just posting a meme seems too easy. Some of the projects have enough power to vote them up and maybe it is not up to us to do anything about them.

Crazies on the chain is usually a sign of the bull market!

That anonymity makes them feel powerful. I don't mind people knowing who I am as I stand by what I do.

As we all should and not let our mouths (or fingers) run too far ahead of ourselves

Thanks for this example of how NOT to use steem. Sorry that it looks like he has it out for you a bit, but I hopefully with enough downvotes his influence with be futher diminished and he'll give up.

Keep up the vigilant work!

He is resorting to other accounts to attack me, but none have much voting power and he is just so bad at it. Nothing to worry about.

That's a relief.. sucks when someone tries to make your life hell for virtually no reason.
