RE: For the love of God, clean up steemit chat

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

I believe that any direspect should be threated quite simply with forbidding the person to either upvote or post anything for a week.
Second time around he is out of the game

Disrespecting people is not our style of play guys.
Be gentle, if you feel that its heating up, just smile, nod your head and go a different place... like the real world.

At the end of the day no one will notice of you lost an argument over the internet to someome you never will know )

Sort:  

"Forbidding a person to either upvote or post anything for a week" .... "be gentle" ....
Sorry but Steemit is not a Buzzfeed Safe Space. You'll find most people interested in crypto right now are vehemently against censorship. I'm all for courtesy, and I will block trolls unceremoniously, but I'm completely against collectivist authoritarianism in the name of protecting peoples feelings.

One thing is feelings, another is what the author istalking about, and thats pure disrespect to users.
I think that if someone swears at others, acts aggresvly, there should be consiquence.
Thats why we should give all a chance, and make a warning for the first time.

I am not talking about showing your feelings, i am once again, talking about pure aggresion and swearing (in an illiterate way), racism, pheadophilism and so on

"One thing is feelings, another is what the author istalking about, and thats pure disrespect to users."

Again... I don't care about "disrespect". Nobody deserves respect. Respect is earned. If someone "disrespects" you, it's their prerogative. You can choose to ignore them. I get disrespected all the time in the comment section on YouTube. No biggy. It's words on a screen.

I think that if someone swears at others, acts aggresvly, there should be consiquence ..... swearing (in an illiterate way), racism, pheadophilism and so on

As above.. it's just words on a screen.

Perhaps it is more important, actually let me rephrase that... Perhaps it would be more "progressive" if people developed thicker skins, rather than insisting on censoring everything that challenges their beliefs/ego.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion =)

But hey, we are ven kind of agreeing, my advice to the heated up, was:

nod your head and go to a different place...

Well put. Do you have a YouTube channel?

I think you hit the nail on the head here, clever guy!
