I was talking with some people about this yesterday. If the retaliatory flagging on both sides stop, and we can just have it be reasonable downvoting based on disagreements over rewards, there might be an opportunity for involved parties to get together and discuss it. It would make for a great MSPWaves show.
You're definitely right, both @themarkymark, and @lukestokes are far more experienced than me. Seeing less waring in the future would be fantastic. When something highly discouraging happens here, it lowers the morale of the community affecting motivation, thus quality.
I agree with @lukestokes that flagging someone "because they flagged x person" is ilogical and fanning the flames. I'm grateful to know @themarkymark and others have tried. That shows me that everyone does get chances to change and improve, no matter what the original offense was.

But yes, much more NVC is needed in the world and here on Steemit. Lots of tragic expressions of unmet needs going on.

It has been discussed and was clear it wasn't going to change. Many have approached him.
