RE: Flag Abuse (OR: How to kill the Steemit community)
OK. I know that both Mark and I are amenable to whatever reputation repair is necessary. Both of us stumbled by violating community taboos that we were unaware of and have absolutely no intentions of repeating such actions (and are more than willing to apologize for our mistakes). A newbies guide that outlines such taboos would be very helpful (as I understand it, my offense was to use the same tactic that I saw used by other users that you were attempting to perform reputation repair on -- except that I wasn't the repairee [yet :-( ]) -- and we would be more than willing to participate in creating one (we also have some ideas about a reputation repair tool).
Could you please offer additional clarification and advice as you see fit? Thanks!
I restored the rep on the august-newbie account. (Strange name for an account BTW unless you intend to throw it away. Will you still want that account when you are no longer a newbie?)
As far as a newbie guide, what a splendid idea! Perhaps you would like to write one If you join steemit.chat and ask questions I'm sure some of the more experienced members there would be happy to help you out with the content.
