Hi @dantheman! There's a bit of irony here, that I came to your page in order to address you over a vote you gave to steemcleaners involving @countzero, and I find a post about censorship...
Before I explain, I really don't want your first impression of me to be that I searched you down to give you a hard time! I love steemit, I truly admire you and what you've created, this is an amazing place with more potential than any other platform currently on the internet. Thank you so much for this grand opportunity!
But about @countzero; if you look at his blog you will notice a couple of things- He didn't specify where he's from, but judging by his description of it and the way he puts words together my guess is perhaps Russia, certainly not a place of ease and comfort at any rate, and more importantly he is very young. And his post was meant to be a metaphor about the hardfork- much better than I could have done in a reversed circumstance. His next post is what brought my attention to all of this because it's apparent he was very disheartened by the way that was handled, the irony I mentioned is that he felt he was being 'censored'. I would have preferred to have messaged you privately, but there's no way of doing that and I thought you would want to know, I'm sure you weren't aware, particularly of his age.
Again, steemit is an incredible journey that I am excited to be on! You truly are 'the man' Dan ;)
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
It is subjective and not personal. Those guys are doing their best and the relevance of your tags was not obvious to them.
Rather than be offended and feel attacked I'd change the tags or move on to your next post. No one is censoring you. They just want to keep site organized and are entitled to an opinion.
Oh no, this was not me, this was @countzero, a foreigner and a child. That's the reason I wrote to you. i would not be offended or feel attacked if it were me. I don't believe it was meant as an attack on him either, I'm not quite understanding the confusion, I was just alerting you to this young member and how he felt. You'll see that @stellabelle has resteemed his introductory post today.
Thanks for pointing that out... missed that detail.
As busy as you are dealing with a million 'chirping birds'? No problem at all :)
Just in case you have a filter and are not seeing the full context of the message, I definitely want you to know that I think steemit is awesome and that you're brilliant, this platform is incredible :)
