"Marky thinks you called @buildawhale a ped0."
What Marky "thinks" has no basis in reality. If you look back through my posts, I do not think you will find anywhere that I called @buildawhale a ped0. In fact, my only reference to "Pedofile" was in my quote that @themerkymark referred to: i.e.
"Unfortunately because of a few scumbags like the following members, Steemit's days as a viable forum are quickly coming to an end, because it has essentially turned into nothing more than a cesspool of fraud and corruption, controlled by childish members, porn lovers, peadophiles, and other such low-life garbage."
Would you please point out exactly where in the above statement, oranywhere else that I specifically called either @themarkymark or @buildawhale a "Pedofile". Furthermore, immediately after this was brought to my intention, and in the interest of a possible misunderstanding, I edited my post, removing the word "Pedofile" completely.
In any event, I find it rather interesting that neither of these 2 members appeared to have taken issue with any of the other descriptive words I used, such as "porn lovers", "low-life garbage", "scumbags", "scumballs", "idiots", "morons", "childish", "fraud", "corruption", "cesspool" and so on. I am sure there are those who will begin to think that there is much more to this than meets the eye.
@freezepeach please consider reviewing this case.
It appears to be a gross misunderstanding.
And the offending word has been removed from the post.
They need to work it out between themselves, misunderstanding or not. There has to be a logical solution to this.
You would hope.
That is because you made a post that was designed to provoke a negative negative response from him!
If you don't want the flags don't make posts like that, its simple
Bye!
I think the point here is that if simple name-calling is a "crime" then all name-calling should be downvoted.
And on the other hand, if there "are-no-rules" and "might-makes-right", then JUST SAY THAT and stop pretending downvotes are "justified".
While I tend to agree with you on this particular point, I do think it's important to maintain at least some tacit pretense of Uniform Standards of Evidence (USOE) regarding what constitutes a "violation".
I'm pretty sure that was a below minimum payout vote.
